Here's how to watch on TV, stream or listen to Kansas State basketball against TCU
MANHATTAN — Kansas State basketball coach Jerome Tang was encouraged by his team's effort last week in a hard-fought 72-66 road loss at Brigham Young.
That's all well and fine, but the fact remains that the Wildcats have dropped five of their last six games and are running out of time to right the ship. At 15-9 overall with a 5-6 Big 12 record, they have work to do to secure a second straight NCAA bid.
A good start would be to hold serve at home when TCU (17-7, 6-5 Big 12) visits Saturday for an 11 a.m. game at Bramlage Coliseum.
With their one road win offset by a blowout home loss to Oklahoma, the Wildcats can ill afford to stumble against a TCU team that has been a difficult matchup. The Horned Frogs thrive on converting turnovers to easy transition baskets at the other end, and turnovers have been a problem all year for K-State.
