Sigh, that little Texas Tech, Texas run was fun wasn’t it?
Hell, the first half of the Kansas game was immensely enjoyable as well. Then Bill Self ruined it all by realizing that Kansas State has no chance of competing on the boards without a healthy power forward on the roster and a pocket-sized backcourt. He decided to break the stifling Wildcat perimeter defense by having his guards toss the ball towards the rim and then unleashing his size advantage on the offensive glass. K-State locked up the Jayhawks most of the night, but it didn’t matter, because the last phase of defense is securing the rebound, and the Wildcats, despite making every effort, simply could not rebound.
