<p>Behind a stifling defense, the Kansas State Wildcats hold a 31-20 halftime advantage over Texas Tech at United Spirit Arena in Lubboch, TX.</p>
<p>The Wildcats held the Red Raiders to just 17 first half field goal attempts, and kept Texas Tech off of the offensive glass entirely. </p>
<p>Junior G <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-basketball/players/99949/martavious-irving">Martavious Irving</a> set the tone for Kansas State with eight points, and the 24th-ranked Wildcats are well on their way to a fourth Big 12 conference play victory.</p>
<p>Texas Tech entered the contest winless in Big 12 play, and losers of six straight games. Freshman G <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-basketball/players/146239/kevin-wagner">Kevin Wagner</a> has already set a career-high with 13 first half points, over three times his previous best output of four.</p>

<p>K-State found its first road win in conference play at Stillwater this weekend. Now they'll look to make it back-to-back victories at rebuilding Texas Tech.</p> <p>The road trip for No. 24 Kansas State (14-4, 3-3 Big 12) heads to Lubbock on Wednesday, where the Wildcats will face Texas Tech (7-11, 0-6 Big 12) in a season that hasn't been kind to the Cats away from the state of Kansas. K-State won its first Big 12 road game of the year at Oklahoma State on Saturday, their first win in Stillwater in 11 games. The Wildcats will have a relatively easy shot at another Big 12 road win against a young, rebuilding Red Raider team. New head coach Billy Gillespie's squad has only one senior and seven true freshmen on the roster.</p>
