Men's Hoops: Advocare Invitational Preview

This Thanksgiving weekend, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish take part in the Advocare Invitational in Orlando, Florida. The Irish won this tournament back in 2010 when it was called the Orlando Classic and will look to do it again with an impressive 8-team field that could feature as many as 4 or 5 NCAA Tournament teams by season's end.

You can find the bracket here, as the first round of the tournament starts on Thursday, continues Friday, and concludes on Sunday, with the championship game at 4:30pm EST on ESPN2.
