HuskerFanChuck Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Not sure how exciting this is, but the official site announced the Huskers will be participating in the Sun Bowl Invitational this year. Evidently Miles participated last year with Colorado St., so I would guess that's how we ended up there again. Probably looking to pick up a Christmas break tournament, and may not have had many other options at this point. Others participating are UTEP, Central Michigan, Arkansas-Pine Bluff. UTEP was about even with us on RPI last year, the others were way down the list. Not too exciting, but a little more info about the schedule.

GSG Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 You didn't tag this thread with "Shawn Watson" In all seriousness, are these games on TV? I don't recall hearing of this tournament before now. Quote Link to comment
TonyStalloni Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 The team next year might need an easy tournament to springboard into the Big 10. A good place to have success. Quote Link to comment
HuskerFanChuck Posted July 13, 2012 Author Share Posted July 13, 2012 Agreed, TS. GSG, I looked around a bit, and it doesn't appear there is any TV. Again, it's probably more of an opportunity for the guys to get some games in during the break in a holiday tournament, without having them get beat up. I think TS has it exactly right, probably a good springboard into B1G action. Quote Link to comment
redout22 Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 Very winnable tourny.. To be honest if we dont come out of it undefeated I will be dissapointed. Quote Link to comment
