Only 12 P6 teams get automatic bids, and they’re usually rated high enough to warrant a selection anyways.
UNLV 1000% deserves to be in the NIT. We are 1 of 22 teams with 5 or more Q1 wins. Good wins > bad losses.
If we beat Wyoming and San Jose State, beat San Diego State or UNR, and make the semifinals of the MWCT, we are a lock for the NIT.
