The University of Hawai‘i men's basketball team will be matched with Cal Poly of San Luis Obispo, Calif., on Saturday, Feb. 20 at the Stan Sheriff Center as a sideline to ESPN's eighth BracketBusters concept, it was announced today.

Four Western Athletic Conference teams — Louisiana Tech, New Mexico State, Nevada and Utah State — will take part in the televised BracketBusters package Feb. 19-20. Their matchups will be announced today on ESPN.
UH, Fresno State, San Jose State, Idaho and Boise State have been assigned non-conference opponents but will not have their games shown by ESPN.
Cal Poly of the Big West Conference is 8-12.
Because Cal Poly will play at UH this year, the Rainbow Warriors will be obligated to play a future game at San Luis Obispo, Calif.
