K-State Q&A: Why are Bruce Weber's Wildcats still a bubble team? | The Wichita Eagle

It’s time for another K-State Q&A.

Thanks, as always, for your questions. We’ve got a lot of good ones on tap this week, so let’s get right to them.

Can you explain why K-State is still seen as in the bubble? Is our non conference schedule enough to negate a third place standing in the Big 12?

I must admit I am a little perplexed that Kansas State remains so close to the NCAA Tournament cut line in the eyes of bracket experts. The Wildcats are tied with West Virginia for third place in the Big 12 at 9-6, they have won eight of their last 11 games and their lone bad loss (Tulsa in Wichita) doesn’t really seem all that bad.
