Welcome back to the Big 12 Tournament. It was this matchup, 364 days ago, that became the final game the Big 12 Tournament and one of the last college basketball games in the nation as the country began to shut down due to the COVID pandemic.
Last year, the Wildcats beat the Horned Frogs for the third straight year in the tournament. Coming off an abysmal season, K-State was the 10-seed and TCU the 7-seed. The Cats had just come off a win over Iowa State on senior night — only their third conference win of the season — but had gotten swept by the Frogs in regular season play.
