Kansas State Travels to West Virginia
(Morgantown, WV) -- Still alive in the Big 12 Conference title race, the 12th-ranked Kansas State Wildcats travel east to challenge the West Virginia Mountaineers Thursday night.
Kansas State was idle last weekend, giving the team some additional time to lick its wounds following a 41-20 loss at TCU on Nov. 8. That setback snapped a five-game win streak for the Wildcats, who at 5-1 in conference are tied with Baylor and just a half game back of TCU in the standings. They will face the Bears in Waco in the final game of the regular season.
West Virginia had been in the Big 12 championship conversation after it went 4-1 to start conference play, which included a win over Baylor, but back-to- back losses to TCU (31-30) and Texas (33-16) have put an end to that. The Mountaineers were also idle last weekend, and they will close out the regular season at Iowa State on Nov. 29.
