Who’s going to be first to say MSU’s going to be a 14 and play Gonzaga?
Most likely matchups (in order) for Montana State (pending other results)

No. 14 against Kansas State in Denver

No. 15 vs Baylor in Denver

No 14 vs Marquette in Des Moines

No. 15 vs UCLA/Arizona in Sacramento
I’m hoping for Arizona. Bobcats will get crushed, but my older daughter is a sophomore in Tucson and we can at least trash talk until the end of the game.

Congrats to the coaching staff and players! Not sure how much longer Danny stays in Bozeman becaose his type of basketball can win at a larger school.

Through MSU or NCAA.com. Unfortunately, many sites are sold-out well in advance so through the school or via secondary market are best bets. There’s a lottery each spring for each specific site after the Tournament concludes.

I’ve gone at least 10 years to various sites both 1st-2nd rounds and Regionals.

Congratulations Bobcats! GIven the very tough non conference schedule the Cats played, they won't be intimidated no matter who they get matched up with.

Hope for 14, but need a few teams we played to win. Also hope we don't get Arizona again.

The committee tried to avoid rematches so we shouldn’t have to play Arizona first round

He grabs the ball about 6-8 feet beyond the arc and is able to dunk the ball while only dribbling once.

His entire play there from running the ball down, to turning on a dime, and ending with the dunk is as pure an example of athleticism, desire and hustle as you will ever see from any player.
Battle is ridunkulous

Desire and fire. That young man has a fire in him that you don’t always see. Great is another young man that I’ve noticed with that type of intensity.

From the video and the clock he went from last step in the backcourt to complete the play in around 2.8 seconds. The NAU guy looked so shocked and he tried to speed up which didn’t help at all. When I saw RaeQuan start after that ball, I yelled “he’s gonna get that thing” meaning he’d gain possession for a turnover. But he got there, as you say, ridiculously fast, had time to turn the corner comfortably and finish. Beautiful basketball play.
