Nothing comes easy in the Big 12 this basketball season.
Kansas State was reminded just how difficult life in this conference can be during an 86-80 overtime loss to TCU on Wednesday at Bramlage Coliseum.
On paper, this looked like the Wildcats’ least difficult game in weeks. It was at home and the Horned Frogs had lost four in a row. At the least, it figured to be less taxing than a trio of upcoming games against Baylor, Kansas and West Virginia.
And yet, it felt like a fist fight.
