Minutes after Texas A&M was manhandled in an 81-60 loss to Texas earlier in the week, coach Mark Turgeon told his 11th-ranked Aggies that they'd have to be much more physical to beat Kansas State.
Texas A&M answered his challenge, out-muscling Kansas State in a game with 48 fouls to win 64-56 on Saturday.
Khris Middleton had 18 points and Texas A&M made 13 free throws in the last two minutes to hold on against the struggling Wildcats.
