The Good?: If they can get past (presumably) a good Western Kentucky team in the second round of the NIT Season Tip-Off, the Tigers should get a crack at UConn in New York.

The (not so) Bad?: There's a chance for revenge against Xavier, but it will have to come on the road. Both are missing significant pieces from last season's NCAA squads.

The Ugly?: Is there any team from the state of Louisiana or the Southland Conference that the Bayou Bengals don't play?
