How K-State can beat UCF: Transition points

UCF is one of the best defensive teams in the country, ranking 21st on the defensive side. They hold their opponents to 38% shooting from the floor. It'll be tough for the Wildcats to score in the half-court offense, so defensive rebounding and getting fastbreak points will be key for the Wildcats tonight.

An offensive staff name to watch

I'm not first on this (I believe GoPowercat was), but I confirm that K-State is looking at bringing in Matt Wells to their offensive staff. I'm not sure of the role, but I think this will get done.

Wells was an analyst at Oklahoma last season and was previously the head coach at Texas Tech and Utah State. Was also the OC at Utah State.

Klieman and Wells are "close friends", so the move makes sense.
