Upcoming stretch could define Big 12 championship outlook for Kansas State basketball

There seems to be a difference of opinion on Kansas State’s conference championship outlook.

The Wildcats are currently tied with Baylor atop the Big 12 standings at 5-2. Some think they have what it takes to stay there and win a league title for the first time in six years. Others think they are pretenders, ready to fall and unworthy of trophy consideration.

Andy Katz illustrated that wide range of possibilities on Wednesday when he sent out a tweet expressing doubt that any of this year’s Big 12 contenders — which he listed as Baylor, Iowa State and Texas Tech — were ready to dethrone Kansas, despite its recent struggles.
