COLORADO, USA β Two Colorado men's basketball teams are going dancing.
The Colorado Buffaloes heard their named called on Selection Sunday and earned an NCAA Tournament bid for the sixth time under Tad Boyle.
Colorado will play Boise State in the first four with the winner earning a No. 10 seed. The Buffs and Broncos will play Wednesday in Dayton, Ohio.
Back in the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2020-21, the Buffs earned an at-large bid after winning eight of their last nine games in route to a Pac-12 Tournament championship game appearance.
The Buffs enter March Madness with 10 wins against Quad 1/Quad 2 opponents, including four Quad 1 wins away from home, and a NET rating of 25.
The Colorado State Rams will play in a first-four game in Dayton against Virginia in a 10-seed matchup. The winner plays Texas in the first round.
CSU is in the NCAA Tournament for the second time in three seasons. The Rams made it with a strong nonconference schedule, including a blowout win over Creighton, and a series of key home wins.
CSU had ups and downs in Mountain West play, losing on the road to all the top teams in the league, but the Rams also beat all the rest of the top seven at least once.
