The MSU Spartans will face the Temple Owls (21-12) in the First Round of the NCAA South Region this Thursday at 12:30 Eastern time. However, the game is being played in Denver. Go figure eh!?

It is anticipated that hundreds if not thousands of MSU fans will be at the Pepsi Center in Denver. I can tell you that it is a world-class arena and there are as many as 4,000 alumni in the Denver region. It is literally MSU-West to say the least.

If the Spartans can manage to beat the Owls, they will likely face the hottest team in the nation–the Pitt Panthers. Stay tuned. This is one tough bracket.
