K-State outscores the State of Illinois 165-88 on a Friday night

Last night I spent almost an entire days work at Bramlage Coliseum. It was my first trip to Bramlage this year, as high school sports had kept me away from any exhibition action, so I decided to make the most of it. I showed up at 4 p.m. and didn’t leave until 11:30 p.m., and I learned a lot in the almost eight-hour baptism in 2016 K-State basketball.

Both games started out as exercises in athletics that only vaguely resembled basketball. The women managed only an 11-5 lead in the first 10 minutes, and the men trailed 9-7 early after a going on a 7-2 run to start the game.
