That moment, perhaps more than any other, summed up the Wildcats’ 81-73 victory over the Jayhawks in this Sunflower Showdown rivalry game. K-State turned back the clock as if Beasley and Barry Brown, who was also in the house, were still wearing purple.

The Kansas men’s basketball team already beat its rival Kansas State once, but it wasn’t a particularly dominant display. The Jayhawks jumped out to a 14-0 lead but basically traded baskets with the Wildcats for the remaining 36 minutes of game time on Jan.

The Jayhawks have several advantages there, especially when it comes to 3-point defense. The Wildcats have been unconscious from beyond the arc during their recent winning streak, but they may cool off against a KU defense that is holding opponents to 29% shooting from 3-point range.

Kansas State basketball will try to make it three in a row at home against Kansas. Here's a scouting report and a prediction for Saturday's game.
