Another lackluster first-half performance by the Kansas State men led to another double-digit loss Saturday as the Wildcats fell at home, 87-57, to No. 12 Houston.

The loss is the largest by margin of defeat in the Jerome Tang era. It’s the biggest margin of defeat for the Wildcats since a 48-point loss to Baylor in January 2021. The loss is the fifth-largest in school history.

The loss is the sixth in the last seven games for the Wildcats and the third straight.
