As introduced Tuesday, the Colorado males’s basketball group will tackle the Michigan State Spartans within the first spherical of the 2024 Maui Invitational.
The sport will happen on the primary day of the match on Monday, Nov. 25. ESPN2 will broadcast the three p.m. MT matchup. The winner will play the winner of UConn-Memphis whereas the loser will tackle the loser of that very same matchup.
The eight-team bracket rounds out with the Auburn Tigers taking part in the Iowa State Cyclones and the North Carolina Tar Heels taking part in the Dayton Flyers.
Michigan State would be the Buffs’ first massive matchup of the 12 months. Previous to CU’s fifth common season recreation, head coach Tad Boyle’s new-look group could have seen zero groups from the ACC, SEC, Massive East, Massive 12 or Massive Ten.
The Spartans went 20-15 final season and 10-10 within the Massive Ten Convention. After incomes a No. 9 seed within the NCAA Event, they fell to North Carolina within the second spherical.
