Cats Break Through! K-State 62, TCU 54

During the late 1980’s and early 1990’s, then “Voice of the Wildcats” broadcaster Mitch Holthus punctuated K-State wins with his touchstone “big, big, big, big, big Wildcat victory.” How many “bigs” would he have appended to K-State’s 62-54 win over TCU in Fort Worth today?

No, it was not a takedown of KU or an upset of a top-ranked team. It wasn’t a defeat over Kentucky to advance to the Elite 8. I wasn’t a dominating win over OU to seal a share of a league title. The Wildcats beat a similarly young and inconsistent TCU team, and they had to grind all the way to the wire to do it.
