TCU’s quest to end its 19-year absence as a participant in the NCAA men’s basketball tournament hit another roadblock Wednesday night in Schollmaier Arena.
The Horned Frogs fell to Kansas State 75-74 to drop into seventh place in the Big 12 conference standings with one game remaining on the regular-season schedule. The setback marked the sixth consecutive loss for TCU (17-13, 6-11 in Big 12), extending the longest skid of the season at a time when the Frogs are vying with Kansas State (18-12, 7-10) and other bubble teams for at-large spots in the 68-team field for March Madness.
