Allen Field House may be hell, but Hilton Coliseum is its own house of horrors for the Wildcats. K-State hasn't won there under Bruce Weber. But the trauma of Hilton isn't that the Cats go there and get blown out. No, they go to Ames and put up a fight and lose in the most painful ways imaginable -- or, at least, it sure seems that way. Breaking that trend today would be a huge boost to K-State's post-season dreams.

The game: Kansas State visits the Iowa State Cyclones. K-State leads the series 137-84, although Iowa State has a 21-20 lead in the Big 12 era thanks to their win in Manhattan on January 16. In Ames, the Wildcats hold a narrow 50-48 edge. Bruce Weber is 3-5 against the Cyclones and 0-3 at Hilton; this is Steve Prohm's second meeting with K-State following that 76-63 win in January.
