BYU on Wednesday received its draw for the semifinals at the CBE Hall of Fame Classic, with the Cougars opening against the Texas Longhorns, then facing either Wichita State or DePaul to close out competition.
Organizers of the Kansas City-based tournament announced the championship round matchups this morning, along with TV broadcast assignments. Both of BYU's games will be seen on ESPN Networks.
The tournament format calls for the championship round participants to host two on-campus contests before advancing to Kansas City; the opponents and dates for those games have yet to be announced.
