Few college basketball atmospheres are better than Bramlage Coliseum when Kansas is the opponent. Students line up early and alumni cheer passionately. It’s the one day each year K-State fans forget about football and focus exclusively on hoops.
“It’s a game we are always pumped for,” K-State junior guard Barry Brown said. “It’s a game every high schooler dreams of being in.”
The environment was good as ever on Monday, with even pessimistic K-State basketball supporters cramming into the arena to scream their lungs out. Fresh off a four-game winning streak, another victory would vault the Wildcats into a tie for first place in the Big 12 standings.
