NIT Finals Schedule: Baylor Bears Face Penn State Nittany Lions for Title

The NIT finals will be played on Thursday night at Madison Square Garden in New York as the Baylor Bears take on the Penn State Nittany Lions at 7:00 p.m. ET.

Baylor was one game away from making the NCAA tournament but fell to the Missouri Tigers in the Big 12 championship. The Bears have since rattled off four straight wins, knocking off Georgetown in the NIT opener and then dropping Virginia Tech, Auburn and San Diego State to reach the finals. Led by seniors Curtis Jerrells and Kevin Rodgers and sophomore guard LaceDarius Dunn the Bears have been clicking and could cause a number of problems for the Nittany Lions on Thursday night.

Penn State was almost certainly one of the last teams left out of the NCAA tournament as they had an impressive regular season with wins over Michigan State, Purdue and Illinois twice. The Nittany Lions rebounded from the disappointment and after edging George Mason in their NIT opener they ran through Rhode Island, Florida and Notre Dame to reach the finals. They have had big efforts from Talor Battle, Andrew Jones, Stanley Pringle and Jamelle Cornley throughout their recent stretch and their ability to control the glass could be the difference against Baylor.
