The first-ever Phil Knight Invitational is a 16-team tournament split into two brackets, Victory and Motion, to honor Nike founder Phil Knight's 80th birthday. The field includes five of the top 17 teams in the AP poll this week and a handful of the country's top programs.

While the two top games for this tournament would likely be the bracket championships listed above, the semifinal games -- on Friday at 3:30 ET and 9 or 11:30 ET on ESPN and ESPN2 respectively -- could also showcase impressive matchups with the chance of UNC facing Oklahoma and Florida playing Gonzaga.

The tournament begins Thursday and all games are on the ESPN family of networks.
