1. KState missed NCAAT, accepted NIT bid
2. In their game 1 Iowa beat them 91-82, never trailing in the game. KState tied it 3-3 less than a minute into the game, but Iowa separated themselves from the little apple kitties after that. Leading by 11 at the half, Iowa won by 9. KSU started H2 on a 10-2 run to get back to 3 down, then the HAWKeyes got their groove back and pulled away for good.
I know, I shouldn’t take pleasure in the misfortunes of others, no matter how horrible their fan base may be. But this postseason this just may be one of the sweetest non-KU moments in my recent memory. Not quite the same as those other Wildcats - the defending National Champions - losing to Robert Morris in game 1 of the 2013 NIT, but still so, so good.

Probably the wrong thread for this but the big XII is looking poor in the post season so far. Hopefully the Hawks can hold up their end when it comes time for that.
