The Blazers at 23-5, looked like a cinch for the big dance, but the season ended the worst way possible as they dropped each of their last three games, costing them a bid. I don't see this team getting excited about the NIT, and particularly Coastal Carolina. The Chanticleers had their best season ever at 28-6, and will be glad to still be playing. This is a very good shooting team with each of their top four scorers averaging over 47% shooting for the year, and this club is 5-0 ATS in their last five posted as a dog. They will be focused on beating a mid-major team here, while for UAB it isn't anything to get excited about. I'll go with Coastal Carolina here.
