NIT bracket 2025: Tournament schedule, scores, dates, times as North Texas upsets No. 4 seed Oklahoma State



The 2025 NIT continued Tuesday with No. 2 seed North Texas and Chattanooga pulling off dramatic wins over No. 4 seed Oklahoma State and No. 3 seed Bradley, respectively. North Texas and Chattanooga await their respective opponents from the winners of Wednesday’s games to determine the final four teams remaining in the bracket.

North Texas upset Oklahoma State 61-59 behind 15 points from guard Atin Wright. Oklahoma State scored the final seven points to make things interesting, but the Mean Green escaped with a win. Oklahoma State was the final power-conference team remaining in this year’s NIT. North Texas will face No. 1 seed or UAB in the NIT semifinals knowing coach Russ Hodges will be departing after their season concludes to become the next coach at West Virginia. 

In another quarterfinal game, No. 3 seed Bradley was upset by Chattanooga after guard Trey Bonham drilled a go-ahead 3-pointer with 14.8 seconds left to give his team a 67-65 win. 

Chattanooga will face either Loyola Chicago or Kent State in the semifinals at Hinkle Fieldhouse in Indianapolis on April 1.
