The date was November 8, 2014.
Kansas State, 7-1 and ranked seventh with their only loss being the mistake-ridden collapse at home against fifth-ranked Auburn, faced 7-1 and sixth-ranked TCU, whose only loss was to Baylor, also 7-1. All three Big 12 teams were still solidly in playoff contention; indeed, the Big 12’s ultimate exclusion would be a massive controversy in the College Football Playoff’s opening season.
The Frogs prevailed on that day with a 41-20 win. On December 3, 2014, TCU was ranked third. K-State was ranked 9th.
It’s now December 3, 2022, and TCU is again ranked third while K-State is ranked ninth in that poll we don’t acknowledge, 10th in the playoff rankings.
