KU’s Svi Mykhailiuk expects loud welcome at Bramlage Coliseum

It’s time for the sequel to the “Walk Chalk Jayhawk” game.

To refresh the memory … that’s the Sunflower Showdown contest on Jan. 3 at Allen Fieldhouse in which Kansas edged Kansas State 90-88 on a buzzer-beating layup by Svi Mykhailiuk, who, according to the replay, took an extra step or two before completing a drive to the goal.

“We’ll see, but probably,” said Mykhailiuk, KU’s junior shooting guard from Ukraine, when asked if K-State fans at Monday’s 8 p.m. KU-Kansas State game at Bramlage Coliseum in Manhattan will try to throw him off his game with signs and/or verbal insults.
