Colorado State to play San Jose State in first round of MW Tournament

Welcome to March Madness, Colorado State men’s basketball fans!

With their 87-73 victory over the rival Air Force Falcons yesterday, your Rams secured a 16-15 overall record, going 8-10 in-conference. That record meant a tie with UNLV for the No. 6 seed, and due to a tie-breaker, Colorado State earned the No. 6 seed outright.

That means they now know their first round opponent in the Mountain West Tournament, which tips off on Wednesday. It will be No. 11 seed San Jose State Spartans.

Here’s a look at the entire bracket:

Wednesday is an important day for fans of Colorado State Athletics: In the morning, prospective Next Level Rams looking to join the NFL will show off their skills at CSU’s Pro Day and then, at 5 p.m. MT, CSU – SJSU tips off. Watch on TheMW.com.
