Profiles In K-State Fandom – Ben Asmann

I am starting a new blog series called “Profiles In K-State Fandom” to highlight some of the great K-State fans out there.

K-State Basketball Must Win The Next Two Games If They Hope To Make The NCAA Tournament

With seven games left in the Big 12 basketball regular season, K-State is firmly off the bubble. By that, I mean they are not likely to be in contention to be selected as part of the NCAA tournament after losing to BYU on Saturday night. The Wildcats are 5-6 and tied for ninth in the Big 12 standings, and their remaining schedule is not easy: vs. TCU on February 17th at Texas on February 19th vs. BYU on February 24th…
