After a 2-0 start in Big 12 play, Iowa State looked every bit the team to play spoiler to Kansas’ unprecedented title streak. And then... A loss at Baylor which featured questionable officiating down the stretch and lack of execution, and now, whatever this game was.
The up-and-down Kansas State Wildcats, fresh off a 21 point comeback win against West Virginia, pulled off an absolute stunner against the Clones. The 58-57 heartbreaker happened for a variety of reasons, including an abysmal game from Lindell Wigginton, fantastic defense from both sides, but most importantly, a 7 point collapse by the Cyclones that transpired over the course of the final 5 minutes of game time.
