The Wildcats have accepted a bid to play Arkansas in the Auto Zone Liberty Bowl at 2:20 pm on Jan. 2nd.
It is the Wildcats’ sixth straight bowl appearance and the second time playing in a bowl versus the Razorbacks with the last time coming in the 2011 Cotton Bowl.
Arkansas is coached by former K-State assistant coach Bret Bielema.
The Collegian broke the story first last night after the Wildcat’s 24-23 win over West Virginia.
Stay tuned to the Collegian for more bowl related news and up to date info on all of your favorite K-State sports.
