Wildcats fall in the Big XII tournament, NCAA tickets coming to my house
Well…it wasn’t exactly unexpected by any person who follows college basketball. Kansas State lost to Texas tonight. They lost by three in a defensive struggle.
The cats had a hell of a time scoring, which is also not a surprise. These last few conference games, Kansas State has averaged a whooping 29% field goal percentage. That is horrible, folks. At the same time, our opponents usually shoot 50% , give or take 5%. The good news is that Kansas State is good at both offensive rebounds and defense.
Unfortunately tonight was not the night for Clemente when he went a bone-jarring 0-7 from 3-pt lan in the first half. I feel like if we could of just hit some points here and there this game wouldn’t of even been a contest. Kansas State really needed to win this game to make a push for the NCAA. Since we didn’t win, it is pretty much a guaranteed ride into the NIT now.
I plan to make my way to Manhattan for at least one NIT game and hopefully more. Good luck cats!
In other news, I received an email from the sprint center today. Apparently some people are not buying/picking up their tickets for the NCAA tournament (1st and 2nd round). I was able to scoop up two decent seats in the upper deck and will be attending with my father. He is a huge OU fan, so I will have to put up with that crap…but otherwise, it will be a good time.
