   The Kansas State basketball team played its best game of the season yesterday afternoon.  Unfortunately, they saved that effort for a game against one of the best teams in the country, the Baylor Bears.  Baylor won the Big 12 quarterfinal game 74-68.  Some K-State fans on social media celebrated the loss as if Bruce Weber had just led the Wildcats to the national championship.  It was quite bizarre to witness.  The fans weren’t the only ones celebrating.  Bruce Weber…

A strong defensive performance and a 16-0 run helped propel K-State to the victory. The competition gets much more difficult tomorrow against number one seed Baylor.  Baylor beat K-State twice during the regular season, by 31 points in game one and by 48 points in…

K-State beat a horrid Iowa State team 61 to 56 on Saturday.  A win’s a win and it’s much better than being on the losing side of things.  The Wildcats proved they are not the worst team in the league, beating the 0-18 Cyclones for the second time this season and earning the number nine seed going into the Big 12 tournament. Senior Mike McGuirl had another great game, scoring 17 points.  Sophomore forward Antonio Gordon did not play.  Bruce…

   Kansas State basketball lost 65-43 to West Virginia yesterday in a game they were forced to play without starting guard Nijel Pack due to an eye issue. There’s not much to say about this one, as it was ugly on both sides until West Virginia went on a 17-0 run in the second half to break it wide open.  Let’s take a closer look… “Our defense was better in the second half. It was much better in the second…

  The Wildcats won their first game of 2021 yesterday, beating TCU 62-54.  The game was very much in doubt until Selton Miguel hit a three-pointer from the corner with 2:35 left to give K-State a 56-51 lead.  K-State finished the game on a 16-3 run in a game I never thought they were going to win until Miguel made that key shot down the stretch.  Let’s take a look at some news and quotes of note from the game……
