K-State dismantles Oklahoma, wins first Big 12 basketball title since 2013

There wasn’t an empty seat to be found inside Bramlage Coliseum on Saturday. Not for a basketball game, and moment, like this. It was the type of crowd that usually only shows up for a rival or a No. 1 ranked opponent, only louder. Even with spring break underway and a large number of students out of town, K-State fans packed the place and created a championship-level atmosphere.

Then they celebrated a Big 12 title.

K-State won a share of its first conference championship since 2013, and its second since 1977, by defeating Oklahoma 68-53 in a game that felt more like a coronation than a pressure-packed grinder.
