SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (AP) K-State is headed back to the desert, this time to face Michigan in the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl.
The Wildcats (7-5) lost to Oregon 35-17 in last year’s Fiesta Bowl, but earned a return trip to Arizona after finishing strong this season.
K-State lost four of its first six games, but finished with a flourish, rolling over rival Kansas 31-10 in their regular-season finale to win five of its final six.
Michigan (7-5) opened the season 5-0 before fading down the stretch. The Wolverines lost four of its final five games, though came within a failed 2-point conversion of knocking off then-No. 2 Ohio State on Nov. 30.
The Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl will kick off on December 28th at 9:15 central time and will be broadcast on ESPN.
