Once again, Kansas State men’s basketball put itself in position to win a Big 12 game.

Once again, it couldn’t finish.

TCU took its first lead of the afternoon on two free throws with 6.7 seconds remaining and capitalized on a late K-State turnover to secure an 84-82 victory Saturday at Schollmaier Arena.

The Wildcats committed three turnovers in the final 90 seconds and dropped to 10-13 overall and 1-9 in conference play.

“I’ve got to be better for our guys because they gave everything they had,” head coach Jerome Tang said. “We actually thought we’d only have five guys for this game as of yesterday (sickness and injuries), so I’m proud of our guys — not proud of the result. Nobody wants to lose, but for what these guys have been going through, I’m very proud of them. We’ll keep fighting. We’ll figure this thing out.”
