Following its hard-fought 27-21 victory Saturday at No. 25 Iowa State to move to 6-0, Kansas State was ranked fourth in the initial BCS standings released Sunday night on ESPN. The No. 4 ranking was tied for the highest for the Wildcats (6-0, 3-0 Big 12) in an opening BCS poll with the 1998 team, while it was the highest overall since sitting in third place for five straight weeks to end the 1998 season.
