They are coming off of wins over Alabama and Oakland to get to this point. One of the reasons for their success thus far in the NIT has been their ability to score points. T.J. Cline is the machine that makes the offense go and he will be quite the challenge for TCU.
Both of these teams could make a run at winning the entire tournament. Between TCU’s recent hot streak and the quality shooting by Richmond, this has the potential to be yet another fantastic game for the NIT.
