Johnson Comes Up Big, Dick Shrivels Late; (13)K-State Takes Down (2)KU 83-82 In OT

Tap...tap...tap...

Is this thing on?

In an earlier-than-usual Sunflower Showdown tilt in the Octagon of Doom, your #13 Kansas State Wildcats (16-2, 5-1) took down the #2 Kansas Jayhawks (16-2, 5-1) in overtime, 83-82.

Both teams came out of the blocks a little overhyped, with K-State showing the clear symptoms of nerves we all hoped they’d avoid, committing a 2 half-court turnovers and missing several shots at the rim. However, KU followed suit, coughing up 8 turnovers in the first 10 minutes, allowing the Cats to get more shots up than their counterparts.
