As we look into the quarterfinals starting Tuesday, let's preview all of the matchups headed into the final round of host sites by looking into how they got here:
The Wolf Pack have but one job, give us the mid-major Final Four that we so desire. Steve Alford's team has found its way through two high-quality opponents so far, taking down Murray State in the first round before ending the season of one of mid-major basketball's most highly-anticipated teams in Liberty. This team is playing its best form of basketball right now, and with the SEC's Tigers on deck for a road matchup in the state of Alabama, it will be up to Corey Camper and crew to bring their home-court advantage with them. So far, the Wolf Pack have sported the second-highest attendance of all of the teams in the NIT up to this point.
