From Feb. 1 through the end of the regular season, however, Kansas State committed turnovers on 21.3% of its possessions, for a ranking of 340 out of 363 Division I teams, per barttorvik.com.

I like this stat.

Might get run out of the building again like last year.

Any 14 seed might get run out of the building against a 3. Kansas State is only #24 in the Net rankings and got their signature wins against Kansas and Texas in early January. On paper this seems at least a more favorable matchup than last year against Texas Tech.

Less likely than it used to be and very dependent on the matchup. The pace that K State plays at is what worries me.

Kansas State Wildcats

After snapping a seven-game losing streak against in-state rival Kansas on Jan. 17, Jerome Tang stood on a table swarmed by KSU fans. He had a message for them: You can court-storm tonight but never again, because this is our new normal now.

He wasn't lying. In his first season leading the Wildcats, the former Baylor associate head coach has established a new culture in Manhattan, Kansas. The Wildcats entered the postseason with 23 wins, their highest win total since 2018-19. Their résumé boasts victories over Kansas, Texas and Baylor (twice). Florida transfer Keyontae Johnson (17.8 PPG, 7.7 RPG, 42% from 3) and Markquis Nowell (17.0 PPG, 7.7 APG), who were both named to the all-Big 12 first team, have been the anchors. From Feb. 1 through the end of the regular season, however, Kansas State committed turnovers on 21.3% of its possessions, for a ranking of 340 out of 363 Division I teams, per barttorvik.com. 5 stars

Selfishly I really really wanted them to play in Denver.

The Bobcats will be the crowd favorite in Greensboro. The NCAA did us a big solid.

[MSU01]

Game time is 9:40 PM local time, 7:40 Montana time according to the ESPN app.

Does anyone know when game times will be announced?

What’s the best chance Msu has had going into the tournament?

Kansa State
Texas Tech
Syracuse
St. John’s

Big East the first two years. Big 12 the last two.

That was when the Big East was the Big Beast.

Lots of MSU fans in Greensboro. Plus they hate KSU there.

Purple Wildcats have been good for the Bobcats lately.

So does Darius Brown!

[thefrank1]

I'm looking forward to the Brown - Nowell match up.

[Montanabob]

Can Grand Canyon play in the post season?

In basketball yes, football not yet.
They are also a 14 seed.

Mony Mony playing at Gold Bar. Just saying

I’m the only person singing along to it so far. I’m still teaching everyone the words.

ESPN is listing the game at 7:40 PM on CBS. KSU 8.5 favorites.

The best part of this matchup is that it's on Friday night on CBS so essentially anyone with a tv can watch the game.

MSU will be used to the late 9:40 local start time after playing the Big Sky semifinal and final at 9 and 9:30 respectively! They also have a strong history so far this year going against purple teams called the Wildcats in the playoffs.

Not good for those who had planned on driving to the regional.
We could use a local rooting section...

[BelgradeBobcat]

Great for national exposure in the east bracket!

Rather play Kansas St than the Zags in the West bracket

Now is why we need to have the players names on the back of the jerseys. Time to start looking like were a big time program!

I fully support thus proposal.

It's a mere 2,101 miles and 31 hours of driving time from Bozeman to Greensboro...can't be much worse than driving from Broadus to Libby, right?
