The 18th-ranked Kansas Jayhawks had no problem at home on Saturday against the rival 25th-ranked Kansas State Wildcats, taking care of business easily inside Allen Fieldhouse, 86-60.

Star freshman Andrew Wiggins led the way for coach Bill Self and the Jayhawks with 22 points on 7-of-13 shooting, with five rebounds and two assists.

Guard Wayne Selden also had a phenomenal afternoon once again, dropping in 20 points and adding four rebounds and three assists as this Kansas team continues to come together as one as the season moves on.

This one was never really close throughout as the Wildcats couldn’t keep up with the talent and athleticism of Kansas. The Jayhawks rolled right out from the start and never looked back, taking a dominating 45-28 lead into the locker room at the half.

They then went on to outscore the Wildcats 41-32 in the second half to walk away with the easy win as they now get set to take on the Iowa State Cyclones on Monday, who suffered their first loss of the season on Saturday to Oklahoma, and will be looking for redemption.

Kansas now improves to 11-4 on the season with the win, while Kansas State drops to 12-4 with the loss.
