Kansas State-Florida Atlantic (3/25): How to watch March Madness’ Elite Eight online, TV, time
Kansas State and Florida Atlantic face off in the Elite Eight on Saturday, March 25. The game will be live streamed on Sling, which offers half off the first month.
To get a sense of where Kansas State and Florida Atlantic sit in college basketball’s hierarchy, look at their transfers.
The Wildcats have nine players who previously played at other Division I schools, several of whom were productive multi-year starters in mid-major conferences. Most notable among them: Markquis Nowell, the 5-foot-8 point guard who put on the performance of the NCAA Tournament on Thursday night in an overtime victory against Michigan State in the Sweet 16.
FAU’s transfers — players such as Bryan Greenlee and Vladislav Goldin — arrived at the Boca Raton, Florida, school after compiling thinner resumes at programs in the so-called power conferences. Those moves were more of a leap of faith for both FAU coach Dusty May and the players coming aboard.
The Conference USA champions from FAU and Kansas State from the powerful Big 12 will be on equal footing with a trip to the Final Four at stake Saturday night. The ninth-seeded Owls (34-3) face the No. 3 seed Wildcats (26-9) at Madison Square Garden in the East Region final.
