Kansas ' one-game lead in the loss column of the Big 12 standings evaporated Tuesday night as the Jayhawks were outplayed by TCU in a resounding 74-64 Horned Frogs victory.
The win marked TCU's second over a Big 12 team ranked in the top 15 in as many games, and the Horned Frogs solidified their NCAA Tournament resume with a 69-66 victory over Texas Tech on Saturday.
6 preceded TCU's name rather than Kansas, few would have known the difference as the Horned Frogs seemingly topped the Jayhawks in every phase of the game.
The 1.18 points per possession TCU scored was the second-most allowed by Kansas this year behind only its Big 12/SEC Challenge loss to Kentucky .
The Horned Frogs enjoyed a 47-35 advantage on the glass, tied the run-happy Jayhawks in fast-break points and held Kansas to a 14-of-40 night (35%) inside the arc.
But the Jayhawks found themselves chasing the Horned Frogs for almost the entirety of the second half, thanks in large part to 19 points and six assists from guard Mike Miles.
