MANHATTAN, Kan. -- Diante Garrett scored five points in overtime and Iowa State stunned No. 5 Kansas State 85-82 on Saturday, snapping a 21-game losing streak to ranked teams.
The Cyclones (15-16, 4-12 Big 12) hadn't won in Manhattan since 2001 and were 7-104 in their last 111 games against ranked teams on the road before coming in Saturday as 15-point underdogs.
Kansas State (24-6, 11-5), the No. 2 seed in next week's Big 12 tournament, shot a miserable 34 percent for the game but still managed to forge a 74-all tie and send the game into overtime when Denis Clemente hit his second 3-pointer in 12 attempts with a little more than a minute left.
Craig Brackins had 19 points before fouling out for Iowa State, which had lost seven of nine. Scott Christopherson had 18 points and Marquis Gilstrap 13.

The win assured the Bears (24-6, 11-5) a first-round bye in the Big 12 tournament.
Tweety Carter had 16 points and 10 assists. His reverse layup with just under 6 minutes left in the first half ignited a 12-4 half-ending run that put the Bears ahead to stay.
Gary Johnson had 25 points for Texas (23-8, 9-7), which has lost eight of 14.

No. 2 Kansas 77, Missouri 56: COLUMBIA, Mo. -- Marcus Morris shook off a scary collision with a scorer's table to notch double-double and the No. 2 Jayhawks used two big runs in each half to beat their rival.
Kansas (29-2, 15-1 Big 12) led by 16 after a 20-4 run in the first half, then put together another 20-4 spurt after Morris' injury to beat the Tigers for the eighth time in nine games.
Missouri (22-9, 10-6) struggled with Kansas' depth and size inside for the second time this season, giving up 42 points in the paint and 17 more rebounds in its final home game.

Oklahoma State 74, Nebraska 55: STILLWATER, Okla. -- James Anderson scored 25 points in what likely was his last game at Gallagher-Iba Arena.
Oklahoma State (21-9, 9-7 Big 12) clinched a winning record in conference play and likely also sealed a berth in the NCAA tournament. The Cowboys will be the seventh seed in the Big 12 tournament in Kansas City, Mo., and will play Oklahoma in the first round.
Brandon Richardson scored 16 points for the Cornhuskers (14-17, 2-14), who have lost 14 of their last 16 games and finished last in the Big 12.

No. 3 Nebraska 82, Kansas St. 72: MANHATTAN, Kan. -- Kelsey Griffin's career-high 36 points helped spark a second-half rally as No. 3 Nebraska beat Kansas State to become the first Big 12 team to roll unbeaten through an entire regular season.
The Huskers (29-0, 16-0) trailed the short-handed Wildcats by as many as 11 points in the first half and faced a surprising 45-38 deficit at intermission.
But with Griffin leading the way, Nebraska unleashed an 18-3 run and seized a 56-48 lead less than 5 minutes into the second half. The Wildcats (13-17, 5-11) only had seven healthy players and never recovered despite 24 points from Ashley Sweat.
Nebraska and No. 1 UConn are the only unbeaten teams in Division I women's basketball.
