The Kansas State Wildcats have dropped two consecutive conference games, and are sitting at .500 on the season.

 

Following a win in the Big 12 opener against Cincinnati, the team has come up short in back-to-back road games against TCU and Oklahoma State. Head Coach Jerome Tang says the team has struggled with giveaways.

 

KSU has had struggles with consistency in numerous areas of the floor, including 3-point shooting, rebounding, and overall defensive intensity. The team is also still searching for a player to emerge as a top option, with flashes from players like Coleman Hawkins, David N'Guessan, and Brendan Hausen, but no stability from a game to game basis.

 

Tang says despite this, he's not hitting the panic button yet.

 

The Wildcats return to Manhattan this weekend to host the Houston Cougars, who enter the matchup winners of seven consecutive games. Coverage begins at 4 p.m. Saturday on the Mighty 690, KGGF.
