The Cowboys did not make the field of 68 teams going dancing in March, but there is still more basketball.

Oklahoma State (19-14) has been named a No. 2 seed in the National Invitational Tournament and will host 7th seed, Florida Gulf-Coast (23-11).

Also of note, the NIT will once again be a test kitchen for some potential rule changes. Here are the tweaks that the NCAA will try out during this tournament.

  • Four 10-minute quarters
  • Lane will be extended to 16 feet
  • 3-point line will be extended by 1 foot, 8 inches to match the NBA’s
  • Shot clock will reset to 20 seconds after offensive rebounds

The Cowboys will host the Eagles inside Gallagher-Iba Arena on Tuesday at 8 p.m. Central Time.
