Tuesday evening we lamented that Kansas State (5-11, 1-7 Big 12) scored only 50 points against Oklahoma on the road. Well, as Kansas City Royals manager Buddy Bell famously said after his team dropped a 10th consecutive game in what would be a 100-loss season in 2006, “Never say it can’t get worse.”
The Wildcats managed only 47 points at home against No. 14 West Virginia (10-4, 3-3) on Saturday, dropping a 69-47 decision to a team that had not played in two weeks and that suffered the defection of promising post player Oscar Tshiebwe not long before the layoff.
