On a big night in terms of redemption for the Texas basketball program, on April 4, the effort on the floor at Madison Square Garden spoke volumes about the mindset of this locker room in the NIT Finals. Texas basketball got to take on the five-seed Lipscomb Bisons as slight 1.5-point favorites at MSG tonight.
The winner of this game got the right to take the NIT Championship back to campus. On the Forty Acres, an NIT Championship would at least repair some of the damage and disappointment that the 2018-19 regular season brought for the Texas basketball program.
