Will Momentum Carry the Kansas State Wildcats to Victory Over the Iowa State Cyclones?

As the Kansas State Wildcats prepare to host the Iowa State Cyclones at Bramlage Coliseum, fans are eager to see if their team can continue their recent trend of narrow victories. The Wildcats have been on a rollercoaster ride, with their last game against the Knights resulting in a slim two-point win, 60-58. This victory was marked by a strong defensive performance, with 15 steals and an assist-to-turnover ratio just shy of unity.

The team's resilience was also on display in an earlier matchup where they edged out the Cowgirls by one point, showcasing their ability to maintain composure under pressure. That game ended 69-68 in favor of Kansas State, with an impressive free throw percentage of 100 percent and a commendable assist-to-turnover ratio of over two.

However, it's not just close games that define this team; they've shown they can score big as well. In a thrilling double-overtime battle against these very same Cyclones earlier in February, Kansas State put up an impressive 93 points despite falling short by three points.

Looking ahead to this rematch at home turf presents both opportunity and challenge for Kansas State. The Cyclones have demonstrated potent offensive capabilities as well – particularly from beyond the arc where they shot an outstanding 47 percent during their last encounter with the Wildcats.

With both teams showing strengths that could tip the scales either way, fans should expect another intense showdown. The venue might play into Kansas State's hands; playing at Bramlage Coliseum has historically provided them with a robust home-court advantage.

The upcoming clash is scheduled for February 29th at half-past midnight Central Time and will be available for fans to watch from Manhattan or wherever they support their beloved Wildcats.
