Virginia Tech vs. Kansas State to be part of ESPN's College Hoops Tip-Off Marathon

We've known since May that Virginia Tech's basketball team was going to travel to Kansas State this season. On Monday we got the particulars.

The Hokies will play the Wildcats at 4 p.m. EST on Tuesday, Nov. 16 at Bramlage Coliseum in Manhattan, Kan. The game will be a part of ESPN's now-annual 24 hours of college basketball to tip-off the season.

Tech scheduled the game probably because its non-conference strength of schedule was one of the reasons it was left out of last year's NCAA tournament. The Wildcats will likely be a Top 10 team to start the 2010-11 season, returning two starters and their top three bench players from a team that went to the Elite Eight last season.

You have to schedule these games

when you’re rewarded for losing to good teams. Glad we were able to schedule this. Win win either way.
