Of the 100 teams that are chosen for the NCAA Tournament and NIT, only two get to finish their season with a win. The TCU Horned Frogs are one of those two teams as they knocked off Georgia Tech 88-56 in the Championship game of the NIT to bring home the title.
It was all Frogs to start the game as TCU raced out to a 14-1 lead by the first media timeout thanks to some lockdown defense and easy fast breaks. The Frogs kept up the hot start for a few minutes, but Georgia Tech used a 7-0 run to get back within 9 points by the under-8 timeout.
