Last post-season win...

In case you was ponderin', BG's last win in the post-season was 37 years ago when the Falcons beat Tennessee in the National Commissioners Invitational Tournament, which, according to Wikipedia (sorry Dr. Messer-Kruse) was the NCAA's attempt to snuff out the NIT.  At the time, only a conference champion could get into the NCAA, so the NCIT was for second place teams.  Could be wrong about that, but the game itself comes from the BG game notes.  Anyway, after two years, the NCAA created the at-large bid and got rid of the NCIT.
