The nightcap will see a Northwestern showdown, as the Washington St. Cougars take on the Oregon St. Beavers. WSU defeated the Wyoming Cowboys in the quarterfinals, while Oregon St. knocked off the TCU Horned Frogs. This game will begin at 10 p.m. ET in Corvallis, Ore., and will also be televised on HDNet.
