The Wildcats are in a tailspin. They have lost six of their past seven games and are coming off a 87-57 loss against Houston. That 30-point margin was the biggest loss of the Jerome Tang era. K-State has slumped hard on offense during that stretch. The Wildcats haven’t topped 71 points in a game since early December.

Texas Tech held Kansas State scoreless for the game's final 5:49 and sent the Wildcats to a fourth consecutive loss with a 61-57 decision on Tuesday night in Manhattan, Kan.
