Perry’s 3-pointer with eight seconds left in regulation tied it at 65. Up by three, the Lions’ Detalian Brown missed the front end of a 1-and-1 with 16 seconds left before Perry’s shot. Brown’s open baseline 3 attempt with 0.7 seconds left hit the top of the backboard to force overtime.

David N’Guessan’s layup to start the extra session put Kansas State ahead 67-65, its first lead since Colbert made 1-of-2 foul shots to make it 18-16 with 5:34 remaining before halftime. North Alabama’s Forrest followed with a three-point play with 5:15 before halftime and North Alabama stayed ahead until Perry’s late 3.

The Lions led 31-23 at halftime and pushed the lead to 13 when Lane made a layup and Brown added a 3-pointer for a 36-23 advantage. Kansas State responded with a 10-0 run and got within three on Colbert’s layup with 15:19 left.

Kansas State needed an extra session at home on Tuesday night when it beat Oral Roberts 88-78. Kansas State (6-2) is 3-0 in overtime games this season and 8-0 in extra session games under second-year coach Jerome Tang.

Kansas State hosts No. 18 Villanova on Tuesday in the Big East/Big 12 Battle.
