<p>The Kansas State Wildcats moved to 6-1 on the year as they took down the Emporia State Hornets on Monday night at Bramlage Coliseum. K-State's <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-basketball/players/26108/jacob-pullen">Jacob Pullen</a> was the story of the night as he led the Wildcats in the 85-61 victory and broke the school record for career three-pointers.</p>
<p>Pullen had 26 points and five assists including four three-pointers en route to the 24-point victory. He tied the school record for three-pointers late in the first half and followed it up with No. 241, breaking Steve Henson's school record of 240. Pullen allowed for a few smiles as his record was announced and cheers came from the crowd.</p>
<p>Emporia State kept things somewhat close early but Kansas State pulled away late in the first half and into the second half. Pullen's effort was complemented by <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-basketball/players/53653/freddy-asprilla">Freddy Asprilla</a>'s 17-point career night on 8-of-10 shooting. He added eight rebounds as well. Guard Rodney McGruded had 17 points and <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-basketball/players/31336/jamar-samuels">Jamar Samuels</a> was solid with eight points and six rebounds.</p>
<p>Kansas State found out on Monday that they dropped below the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-basketball/teams/kansas-jayhawks">Kansas Jayhawks</a> in the <a href="http://kansascity.sbnation.com/kansas-jayhawks/2010/11/29/1842436/ncaa-basketball-rankings-kansas-state-mizzou-ap-poll">NCAA basketball rankings</a>. They now sit at No. 5 as KU sits at No. 4.</p>
<p>Kansas State also ended the month of November with six wins, a school record. They had a nice formula for victory. The Wildcats are 50-2 under Frank Martin when scoring over 80 points and 55-6 when allowing less than 70 points. They also made 52.3 percent of their shots which was just shy of their season high.</p>
<p>All in all, it was a solid night for Kansas State.</p>
