Episode Details

A big night in college basketball on Tuesday were downers for two of the three area major college programs. But one came up with a huge victory—Kansas State.

The Wildcats topped No. 7 Oklahoma at Bramlage Coliseum, sending Sooners coach and former K-State coach and playing great Lon Kruger to his ninth straight loss in his old home building. Senior Mike McGuirl came up huge for the Wildcats.

Not such a good night for the ranked teams. No. 17 Kansas fell in overtime at Texas and 24th-ranked Missouri fell for the second time this season to Ole Miss.

On today’s SportsBeat KC, you’ll hear from beat writers Kellis Robinett, Jesse Newell and Gary Bedore along with Missouri athletic director Jim Sterk, who addresses Cuonzo Martin’s future with the Tigers.
