Jameel McKay, who has been maligned by everyone covering Iowa State this season, saved his best game of the Big 12 conference season for an unseasonably warm Saturday night in Ames as he poured in 14 points and collected 17 rebounds in Iowa State's 80-61 victory over Kansas State.
The win is the Cyclones' 20th on the season and moves them to a 9-7 conference record, which keeps them a game ahead of Texas Tech for 6th in the conference and a potential date with Oklahoma in the Big 12 tournament in Kansas City.
