Skinny: Ten years and two days after No. 2 Michigan State visited Loyola's home court, No. 5 Kansas State comes to town. The Wildcats are here as a favor to senior guard Jacob Pullen, the Proviso East product and preseason All-American who's likely to finish second on K-State's all-time scoring list. He's averaging 16 ppg, 4.0 apg, 3.1 rpg and 2.1 spg this year. As for Loyola, remember when the Ramblers had a terrific core of seven players? Starting small forward Jordan Hicks broke his left foot Monday, so he's out perhaps until February. Starting power forward Walt Gibler missed Wednesday's SIU E game with a high ankle sprain. He's a game-time decision.
