Wildcats Choke Away Opportunity: TCU 60, K-State 57

Kansas State led TCU much of the evening Wednesday night in Bramlage Coliseum, only to fall behind by 10 points early in the second half. Though the Wildcats (8-7, 0-4 Big 12) swung momentum back so completely that they held a 5-point lead with 1:11 remaining in the contest, they collapsed late, allowing TCU (11-2, 1-1 Big 12) an 8-0 run to steal a 60-57 victory on the Cats’ home floor.

How complete was the collapse? Painfully thorough.

You could say it actually began at the 2:17 mark, when Markquis Nowell (who was mostly a bright spot, otherwise) missed the front end of 1-and-1 with the Cats leading 55-52.
