For anyone that bets the games in the tourney you can learn a lot by watching this and seeing if any trend develops like Big East teams going 4-0 against SEC teams or something like that. Last year two CAA teams made the Final Four of the NIT and George Mason went to the Final Four in the NCAAs. A Missouri Valley team made the Final Four and Wichita St went to the Elite 8. There are a lot of correlations between the success of conferences in the NIT and the NCAAs although it is very important to watch whatever games you can to not allow any results where a team just quit on the season to cloud your judgement.
Thanks for getting the link to the NIT bracket...here's my "Final 4" in the "other" tournament...for what it's worth -

FLORIDA ST. / WEST VIRGINIA / KANSAS ST. / SYRACUSE
SYRACUSE over WEST VIRGINIA

Too bad Notre Dame and Georgia Tech are in the same bracket, those two were my top "sleepers". I think Louisville has got a good shot at the "Final 4" also as a sleeper. Love to see a Ohio St./Albany match too! I can see UCLA and Wisconsin getting picked off early.

Although, Wisconsin wasn't sharp early on.
