Kansas men’s basketball coach Bill Self certainly can understand why Kansas State might use the ending of last year’s Sunflower Showdown in Lawrence as motivation for Saturday’s 11 a.m. rivalry game at Allen Fieldhouse.
“I’m sure that will be something that will be talked about with K-State because obviously that game should have gone overtime, without question, because Svi did walk on that last play,” Self said Thursday morning on the Big 12 coaches’ teleconference.
KU shooting guard Svi Mykhailiuk took an extra step or two as confirmed by replay en route to his last-second layup that gave the Jayhawks a 90-88 victory on Jan.
