During conference tournament week, "survive and advance" is the name of the game.

IUPUI did precisely that, outlasting Oral Roberts 69-65 in the Summit League Tournament.

Now the Jaguars will play No. 1 seed Oakland for the right to advance to the NCAA Tournament.

If they pull that off, I think you have to say that was a pretty good win for K-State in Kansas City — at least, better than we thought at the time.
