If Kansas State finishes the regular season with a victory over Baylor on Saturday at Bramlage Coliseum, the Wildcats will be well-positioned for an NCAA Tournament bid.
At the least, history will be on their side.
Every Big 12 team with a winning conference record has made the NCAA Tournament since 2009, and every Big 12 team with 10 or more conference victories has made it since 2007. K-State (20-10, 9-8 Big 12) can match both criteria by beating Baylor (18-12, 8-9).
“I am still pretty confident that we are sitting in a pretty good spot,” junior K-State forward Dean Wade said.
