The No. 1 Blue Devils will face a formidable challenge Tuesday night in Kansas City, Mo.—they play the No. 4 team in the country, in front of what amounts to a home crowd, no less.
Kansas State (4-0), which blew out No. 22 Gonzaga Monday night in the semifinals of the CBE Classic, has its campus located only two hours away from the Sprint Center. The purple-clad crowd easily seen on television Monday should be even more pronounced Tuesday.
In the Wildcats’ victory over the Bulldogs, senior Jacob Pullen dropped 18 and kickstarted a 12-3 run that put Kansas State ahead by 15 with 12:22 to go in the game. The Wildcats would go on to win, 81-64.
