Kansas State basketball heads to Texas for first road test in rigorous Big 12

MANHATTAN

Kansas State is one game into the Big 12 portion of its schedule, and already the Wildcats feel pressure to win.

That’s how small the margin for error is in the nation’s top-rated RPI conference, which boasts a .831 winning percentage, four ranked squads and the two best teams in college basketball. The Big 12 made history Monday when Kansas and Oklahoma both earned No. 1 rankings, topping the Associated Press and coaches’ polls.

There is no time for K-State to sulk about dropping a heartbreaker to No. 17 West Virginia in double overtime over the weekend.
