Quote from: Bilas
15. Kansas State Wildcats (Previous ranking: 16)

The Wildcats are in the mix for a share of the Big 12 title, even though Kansas beat them twice. oscar Weber has done a remarkable job with this team. Kansas State showed a lot of toughness to execute under stress at Baylor and for Rodney McGruder to hit the game-winner with a second left in regulation.

Kansas State is not a great defensive team, but a good one, and this offense has continued to improve throughout the season. Right now, Kansas State is one of the 25 most efficient offenses in the country, and a large part of that comes from activity on the offensive glass, as the Wildcats are 10th in the country in offensive rebounding percentage, which means easier second shots. Kansas State is not quite as good on the opposite backboard, giving up too many second opportunities.

McGruder has had a great season, and is a clear choice for first team All-Big 12. Kansas State has won nine of 10 since losing back-to-back games to Kansas and Iowa State, and the Wildcats are ranked No. 33 in the BPI, No. 31 in KemPom.com, and No. 21 in the Sagarin ratings. The Bilastrator has Kansas State more in line with Sagarin, which makes Sagarin correct.

Starting to think Bilas sucks.
I think what my friend Mitch is trying to say is that true love is blind.

It's hard for me to hate Bilas--because I love his open crusade against officiating in today's game--but I'm doing my best.

He did the Big Monday game in Lawrence and that is probably it.

its the only thing he's right about, his anti-NCAA stance is so dumb all Duke grads and attorneys should be embarrassed that a peer could have such a first level thought process

several reasons

without spending too much time getting into this topic abolishing the NCAA and paying players would make things much worse and schools like Duke would be better served by shutting football down using this model.
