March Madness 2013: NIT Tournament Round 1 TV Schedule

Who says the NCAA Tournament is the only tourney to keep an eye on? Certainly not I. Eye on Sky and Air Sports will be doing our best to include all 3 smaller side tournaments- the NIT, CBI, and CiT as part of our Atomic Reach March Madness dedication.

As promised, here is the first round of the NIT as announced earlier on ESPN. Every game in the NIT Tourney will be shown on ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, or ESPN3. To make them easier to locate, I have color coated each network.

The semifinals and finals will be broadcast on the radio by Dial Global. So do you have a favorite for this years NIT? If so, post it here at Eye on Sky and Air Sports. Don't feel bad, because you're not alone. My favorite team- BYU- is part of the NIT field.

Be sure to check back soon. As soon as ESPN publishes the NIT broadcasters, they will be posted here. Most will be here tomorrow nigth even if ESPN doesn't post the broadcast field since I'll get them from the school's Game Notes.
