Oklahoma State, which finished seventh in the conference standings this season with a 21-9 record and 9-7 league
mark, advanced to their second round meeting with No. 2 seed Kansas State by taking out in-state rival Oklahoma 81-67 yesterday. The Cowboys put on a shooting clinic against their Bedlam Series rivals, hitting 54 percent from the field and 10 of 11 from the chaity stripe. Leading the way for Travis Ford was diminutive sophomore point guard Keiton Page, who had a game high 24 points.
Now the Pokes will look to duplicate their January 23rd 73-69 win in Manhattan, where they limited the Wildcats to 36 percent from the field and 8-of-28 from beyond the arc. OSU, which hit 45 percent of its field goal attempts in that win, also got 30 points from the Big 12's leading scorer, James Anderson, in their first meeting with the Cats.
Kansas State finished second in the Big 12 this season, going 11-5 in conference play, but they come into tonight's game reeling just a bit. Frank Martin's troops have lost two straight for the first time all season, falling 65-82 at Kansas on March 3rd and 82-85 at home to Iowa State on March 6th. Kansas State will look to guards Jacob Pullen and Denis Clemente to pull them out of their funk as the two backcourt brethren are averaging a combined 34.9 points per game.
Despite their recent troubles, the Wildcats have been a force away from home this year, going 8-2 in true road contests and 3-0 in neutral site games (won by an average of 9.5 points per game).
