From The Couch – K-State Seniors Have A Big Day In A Senior Day Loss To Oklahoma

K-State lost their final regular-season game yesterday to the Oklahoma Sooners, 78-71. They have finished the season 14-16 overall and 6-12 in the Big 12 Conference.

Some Thoughts On The KU Game

At least that game is over. The Kansas Jayhawks took care of the Kansas State Wildcats 102 to 83 in Allen Fieldhouse on Tuesday night in another in a long line of non-competitive games in the Sunflower Showdown.

K-State Is In The NCAA Tournament Field Of 68 According To USA Today

USA Today Sports posted an article this morning and they have K-State as a “last four in” team making the NCAA tournament as a 12 seed.
