For a half some things looked similar to Ames; the Cats were turning it over on nearly a third of their possessions and allowing ISU to rebound half their misses. But similar to the 2nd half in Ames, the home team won the TO and Oboarding battles (substantially) in the 2nd half to pull away for a win. And as a result, K-State fans sit alone in first 1/3 of the way through February for the first time since the late 70s.
Bunches of stars tonight; Rod, Angel, Gip, Tay all came up huge. This team is balanced and tough to stop. And the Cats go to Lawrence in a couple days with a chance to pull 2 games ahead of the Jayhawks.
