Kansas State played efficient offense, brought its typical shutdown defense, and moved into a tie for second place in the Big 12 thanks to a fourth straight win and a shocking Kansas loss at last-place West Virginia.
The ‘Cats scored the first seven points and led wire-to-wire against TCU en route to a 65-55 win, the first time the Horned Frogs have been beaten by double figures since last February. It’s also the first time they’ve been held under 60 all season, although it’s probably worth noting they were without leading scorer and sixth man Kouat Noi, who was out sick and forced TCU to pull the redshirt of freshman center Russell Barlow.
