Kansas State refused to go away, but also refused to take the lead against Iowa State, eventually running out of time and falling to the Cyclones 80-76.
The first half was the Cam Carter show for the Wildcats. The sophomore guard opened the scoring with a jumper at the 19:04 mark of the first half, and went on to score 13 points in the half. It wasn’t a terrible half for the Wildcats, but it felt like they were both leaving points on the floor and giving the Cyclones easy baskets off turnovers.
This was also a game of droughts for Kansas State on offense.
