Game to watch: Kansas vs. Kansas State
The Jayhawks look to find their footing after taking their first loss in conference play at the hands of Oklahoma State. It’s senior night in Allen Fieldhouse, with the winningest player in Kansas history, Sherron Collins, taking his final curtain in the historic arena against in-state rival and No. 5-ranked Kansas State. When asked if he was going to cry at senior night, Collins answered succinctly: “Waterfalls.” The Wildcats will provide a big challenge for the Jayhawks. Point guard Jacob Pullen and Kansas State took Kansas to overtime the first time these teams met in Manhattan.
Big 12 Player of the Week
James Anderson, Oklahoma State G
Anderson was unstoppable Saturday as he found the basket in a variety of ways to lead Oklahoma State to a big upset of the No. 1-ranked Jayhawks. He shot 9-of-19 from the field, including 4-of-6 from long range, for 27 points to go along with eight rebounds. It was a completely dominant performance, and likely locked up the Big 12 Player of the Year award for Anderson.
Big 12 Newcomer of the Week
Matt Pilgrim, Oklahoma State F
Pilgrim has been brilliant at times for Oklahoma State, but has never been very consistent. Last week, he missed the Cowboys’ 69-59 loss at Texas, then rebounded to have a monster game in their upset of Kansas, who had been unbeaten in conference play. Pilgrim hit 8-of-8 shots and both free throws against a usually dominant defensive frontcourt. He finished with 18 points and six rebounds.
Big 12 Team of the Week
Oklahoma State
The Cowboys needed to win just one of a brutal stretch of three games — at Texas, against Kansas at home, and at Texas A&M — to essentially lock themselves in as an NCAA Tournament team. After falling at Texas on Wednesday, they pulled off the upset of top-ranked Kansas in their next game, all but clinching what should be a seventh berth in the NCAA Tournament for the Big 12 Conference.
