The loss snapped the Jayhawks ten game win streak and was their first loss in Big 12 competition this year. 

Cyclone coach Fred Hoiberg explained how his team came up with the win.

“We knew we had to defend them and we knew we had to do work on the rebounds,” Hoiberg said. “We did a good getting in there and battling the whole game. They went on a run on us…we held our ground. We went on one back and made plays down the stretch.”

Iowa State State will get a chance to beat another Kansas team Tuesday, when they host Kansas State.
