K-State was predicted to finish fifth in the Big 12 conference for the 2015 season and some outside the Manhattan community were questioning whether or not the Wildcats would return to the NCAA tournament.
Their 8-1 start clearly makes the statement that the Wildcats can finish better than what the preseason poll said. K-State is currently tied for second in the conference with TCU, and they trail one game to the University of Kansas, who is currently 9-0.
With Kansas at the top of the chain, TCU sneaking in and the big, bad wolf Texas always in the conversation, the question is, can the Wildcats win their first Big 12 Championship since 2003?
