Kansas State: The Wildcats wasn't the team of the week after losing at Kansas, but it's hard to deny the impressive nature of the beatdown they delivered to previously undefeated Missouri on Saturday. K-State is a Big 12 title contender, plain and simple.

From the same link.
2. Kansas State is a legitimate threat to win the Big 12 title. Yes, the Wildcats were thumped by rival Kansas at Allen Fieldhouse. But a lot of good teams look bad in Lawrence. Saturday's victory over Missouri was much more indicative of how good Frank Martin's squad truly is. Along with its trademark defense, the Cats have been incredibly unselfish on offense. They take good shots and have one of the deepest benches in the Big 12. Bramlage Coliseum is also an incredibly tough place to play, as Baylor will find out Tuesday.

Bilas has us at #22. I've seen us as high as 13th in some ballets.

#18. He mentions the Baylor game but not the Oklahoma game. Interesting?
