The Cowboys fought back in the final minute, cutting the Kansas State advantage to 84-80 with 14 seconds to play, but it was not enough.

Mitchell Solomon snatched 10 rebounds the Cowboys, who have lost three of their past four games.

Oklahoma State trailed by as many as nine points in the first half but fashioned a 12-3 run to close the half and after a dunk by Solomon with 47 seconds remaining led 34-33 at halftime.

The Cowboys were led by Carroll's nine points over the first 20 minutes while Brown led all scorers with 12 points and canned two of Kansas State's three 3-pointers. Kansas outshot by the Cowboys 48.1 percent to 36.4 percent in the first half but Oklahoma State grabbed 23 rebounds to just 15 for the Wildcats.
