The University of Missouri basketball team has slipped into the NCAA tournament as the 11th seed in the regional tournament that starts play in Washington, D.C., on Thursday night. They’ll tip off against sixth-seeded Cincinnati at 8:50 our time.

Missouri has lost four of its last five and has dropped out of the rankings. One report says Missouri was one of the last six at-large teams chosen for the 68-team field.

The Missouri State Bears didn’t make it into the NCAA. They’ll host a first-round NIT game at 7 p.m. Tuesday night against the Murray State Racers.
