So expect another packed house on Saturday afternoon for the in-state showdown. If we’ve learned anything, Dixon has done one heck of a job so far at transforming TCU men’s basketball from the doormat of the Big 12 conference to a one of numerous contenders in the league.

TCU 63, OSU 57: This was at the height of Oklahoma State’s run. After Jamie Dixon called a timeout to try and calm his team, OSU got another steal, this time by Averette. He threw the ball ahead to Jeffrey Carroll in transition, but Carroll missed the layup (Oklahoma State made just 6-of-19 layups Tuesday).
