The Tigers are the No. 3 seed in their pod of eight in the Lower Right Bracket, one of four pods in the 32-team event, with a record of 17-14 on the season. UL-Lafayette, the No. 6 seed, comes in with a record of 27-6.

The complete NIT bracket is listed below.

“We are very excited to have been chosen to play in the 2018 NIT,” said Wade. “We look forward to giving our fans another opportunity to watch us play in the Pete Maravich Assembly Center and we hope they will support our players and what they have achieved this season.

“The selection of LSU to this year’s NIT says a lot about the progression of our program. It is a step in a direction that will only continue to move this program forward. It is exciting to be a part of post season play in our first season at LSU. We look forward to the challenges ahead as we face Louisiana-Lafayette in the opening round.”

"Very excited..." to play in a meaningless exhibition tournament to try to be a top 70 program is a bit strong. Hope we win but I won't be running to academy to buy my NIT participation tshirt
