Nebraska Men's Basketball Selected for College Basketball Crown in Las Vegas

The rest of the field features Utah, Butler, George Washington, Boise State, DePaul, Cincinnati, Oregon State, UCF, Colorado, Villanova, Tulane, and USC.

The College Basketball Crown features programs from the Big Ten, Big East, and Big 12, as well as at-large teams from other leagues. Only one of those three priority leagues had a team go to the NIT, making the CBC a higher priority, whether by competition or contract, than what has traditionally been the second-best competition behind the NCAA Tournament.

The CBC will run March 31 through April 6. FS1 will broadcast the first and second rounds, with the semifinals and championship on FOX.
