By the Associated Press:
Xavier Sneed scored 19 points, including the game-winner with 28 seconds to play in overtime, and Kansas State defeated UNLV 60-56 on Saturday.
Mike McGuir and Sneed each drained two free throws down the stretch to put the game out of reach.
Cartier Diarra had 12 points and six assists for Kansas State.
The Wildcats are coming off a 25-win campaign in which they shared the Big 12 regular season title and a trip to the Elite Eight. And while they were 7-5 in true road games last season, they were 0-3 vs. non-conference foes. Coach Bruce Weber said he wanted to schedule a true road game early in the season so his young team could “grow up fast.”
The Wildcats will play at home against Monmouth on Wednesday, November 13th.
