Hilton Coliseum witnessed a stunning upset on February 1st, 2025, as the Kansas State Wildcats dismantled the No. 3 Iowa State Cyclones 80-61. This stunning victory not only snapped a 15-game road losing streak for the Wildcats but also marked their first win in Ames since 2022. The Cyclones, boasting a formidable 17-3 record, were heavily favored. However, the Wildcats had other plans. Their balanced attack saw all five starters scoring in double figures, with guard Dug McDaniel leading the charge with 20 points. Kansas State's suffocating defense forced 18 turnovers and limited Iowa State to just 29 rebounds, a testament to their grit and determination. The Wildcats' victory was a historic one, marking the first time a sub-.500 team had defeated a top-five opponent on the road by such a significant margin. This loss serves as a humbling reminder for the Cyclones that no victory can be taken for granted in the fiercely competitive Big 12 conference. While the loss is undoubtedly a setback, it presents an opportunity for the Cyclones to regroup and refocus their efforts as they continue their push towards the NCAA tournament.
