With three games remaining in the regular season, Kansas State continued to close in on an elusive conference title. The 13th-ranked Wildcats last won a regular season league title in 1977, but thanks to unprecedented success under first-year coach Bruce Weber and an uncharacteristic three-game losing streak by rival Kansas, Kansas State is tied with the sixth-ranked Jayhawks for first place in the Big 12. Monday night's 75-55 victory over Texas Tech kept the Wildcats' hopes alive.
