Kansas State is headed to the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl, where it will play Michigan, according to a source.

This from a K State reporter.  Essentially we still know nothing!

I really hope we do not end up in the BWW Bowl. For one, it just sounds like a crappy bowl, although that's what we deserve this year. But moreover, I'd much rather play a New Year's Day Bowl against a good Georgia team than play a meh Kansas State team at 10:15 at night.

Whoever schedules the times for these things is just an idiot.

Actually you're seeing it slightly wrong:

BWW is a great bowl because of tons of nationwide promotion by BWW.  You think Gator Bowl or Sun Bowl would do such promotion?  Lots of BWW commercials with UM and all of their restuarants push this game with in store signage and specials.  And, afterall Michigan is a highly watched TV team.

I feel that if you're not in Rose Bowl on New Year's Day then who cares really?  Gator Bowl stinks anyway.  Too much Florida already.  Try something new.  And BWW really wanted Michigan!

This is a great chance for Michigan to go out West and make something happen.

WIN THE GAME.  No bitching!

My wife is a KSU grad and I'm a Michigan grad! It would be great to attend this game but I don't think my work schedule will allow this. Too bad!

This should be fun. We get to go to the desert instead of FL for the annual B1G-SEC (slaughter) challenge against a team that like us has had recent success preceding this disappointing season - truly, I'm kind of excited about this.

Sure UGA is a name brand, but it isn't like K St is Rutgers or Maryland or something

Looks unofficially official to me:

 

30m

Kansas State will face Michigan in Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl

26m

Multiple sources have confirmed Michigan vs. Kansas State in Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl. That includes a 10pm start time.

 

And I thought this was hilarious:

26m

So it's UM to the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl. Depending which UM offense shows up, may need those dudes at the bar who control the sprinklers

So, this Buffalo Wild wings thing - Is it a football game, or just some people getting together at a Buffalo Wild Wings?

Is it even on tv? Do you need a ticket, or can you just show up ?

This may not be our proudest moment . . .
