Kansas Stuns No. 2 Iowa State 84-63, Ending Cyclones’ 16-0 Start

Relentless early defense created a 44-23 halftime cushion that Iowa State never threatened.

Overview

  • Tre White led Kansas with 19 points and 10 rebounds, with Darryn Peterson adding 16, Melvin Council Jr. 15 and Flory Bidunga 10.
  • Iowa State shot a season-low 36.9% from the field as its leading trio combined to hit 28.9%.
  • Kansas forced 12 turnovers and committed nine, converting those miscues into a 17-4 edge in points off turnovers.
  • A 20-2 first-half burst put the game out of reach, and after Iowa State cut the deficit to 11, the Jayhawks answered with a 10-0 run.
  • The result moves Kansas to 12-5 (2-2 Big 12) and Iowa State to 16-1 (3-1), with the Cyclones visiting Cincinnati on Saturday and the Jayhawks hosting Baylor on Friday.
