On Tuesday night, I tuned in for the last quarter of the Oregon/Rider first round NIT game because 1) The winner would advance to play the winner of Wednesday’s Marquette/Harvard game, and 2) Rider, the #6 seed was winning by 4 at the start of the fourth quarter.
Oregon ended up running away with the game, outscoring Rider 38-21 in the final 10 minutes, but it was a comment from the announcers that made me take pause. I forget the exact number that the announcers said, but here’s the tweet I sent out after I checked first the live stats and then Oregon’s KenPom page.
