We’re in uncharted territory — at least for anyone under 50 years old. For example, the last time the Kansas State Wildcats won nine games (or more) in a row in conference play, Bruce Weber was still in high school in Milwaukee, WI. And he’s 62.
During that nine-game stretch, the Wildcats have faced, and beaten, every single team in the Big 12. The second game of that streak was in Ames, IA, at one of the toughest venues in the Big 12. And yet the Wildcats, who had just welcomed back Dean Wade from injury, pulled out an improbable 58-57 victory over the then-No.
