GoFrogs: TCU Falls at OSU
STILLWATER, Okla. – Turnovers and an off night from 3-point range hurt the TCU men's basketball team in a 72-57 loss at Oklahoma State Wednesday at Gallagher-Iba Arena.
Desmond Bane led the Frogs (13-9, 4-5 Big 12) with a game-high 16 points, tied the team-high with eight rebounds and tied his career-high with six assists. He was 2-of-5 from 3-point range, part of a 4-of-19 effort and a season-low 21.1 percent effort from three for TCU. The Cowboys (11-11, 1-8 Big 12), which had just eight turnovers and forced 17 takeaways, were led by Isaac Likekele's first career double-double with 15 points and 11 assists.
Oklahoma State started 6-of-9 from the floor while TCU started 3-of-11, as the Cowboys jumped out to an early 14-7 lead. The Horned Frogs fought back to take their first lead of the game at 28-26 with 2:43 remaining in the first half. However, the Cowboys would close the half on a 10-2 run to lead 36-30 at the break.
TCU opened the second half on a 13-4 run to take a 43-40 lead with 14:17 remaining. The Oklahoma State defense then held TCU without a field goal for over 10 minutes, part of a 19-2 scoring run. Overall, the Cowboys outscored the Horned Frogs 32-14 over the final 14 minutes to seal a 72-57 win over TCU.
