Why K-State isn’t worried about championship pressure as Big 12 finale looms

Like a professional golfer trying to protect a lead on Sunday, the Kansas State basketball team will have to deal with championship pressure in its final regular-season game against Oklahoma.

If Texas Tech beats Iowa State at 1 p.m. on Saturday, the Wildcats will need to defeat the Sooners later that afternoon to earn a share of their first Big 12 regular-season championship since 2013. If Iowa State beats Texas Tech, the Wildcats will have a shot at their first outright conference title since 1977.

Either way, it will be a pressure-packed day for everyone at Bramlage Coliseum.
