Coach Steve Lutz and the OSU men's basketball team will face Kansas State at home on Saturday night. OSU (13-4, 1-3) is on a two-game losing streak after defeating UCF in Orlando, while Kansas State (9-8, 0-4) has yet to win a conference game this season.

K-State handed No. 17 Texas Tech its first loss of the season 65-59 on Saturday at United Supermarkets Arena behind a balanced scoring attack that featured 12 points from Tess Heal and 11 points each from Gina Garcia, Taryn Sides and Jordan Speiser.

The last time a K-State basketball coach missed the NCAA Tournament in three consecutive seasons, he was promptly shown the door. That happened in 2022 when fans had their pitchforks out for Bruce Weber. Coincidentally, that was the last time the Wildcats started 0-4 in the Big 12.

Kansas State coach Jerome Tang thinks he might have a solution to help end his team’s three-game Big 12 losing streak. Better sooner than later, right? K-State

Kansas State basketball is trending in the wrong direction to start Big 12 play. How much trouble are the Wildcats in after an 0-3 start?

UCF is a skilled team on offense. It is shooting 37.5% from 3-point range and 54.9% from 2-point range. On top of that, the Knights grab an offensive rebound on 38.9% of all possessions. The Knights have size on the inside. Riley Kugel is the team’s leading scorer.

A heartbreaker in Stillwater. The Kansas State men’s basketball (9-9, 0-5 Big 12) lost in the final seconds to Oklahoma State 84-83. With 2.8 seconds on the clock, the Wildcats fouled a three-point attempt.
