The Kansas State Wildcats welcome the Missouri Tigers for an exhibition game at Bramlage Coliseum on October 23. Head coach Casey Alexander, who recently took over the Wildcats, brings an almost entirely new roster after last season’s struggles. Only one player, Andrej Kostic, returns from the previous squad, which had a record of 12-20. Alexander has recruited several high-major players but has described the game as 'vanilla' ahead of the upcoming season. The matchup features a Missouri team with significant returning talent and new McDonald’s All-Americans. Tip-off is set for 7:00 PM CT, with coverage available on ESPN+ and K-State Sports Network.
