The Iowa State channel guide is up and ready for viewing.  

From the results of putting this guide together it looks like you're going to better off finding a local bar to view this game unless you have DirecTV or Dish.

Apparently Big 12 Network doesn't care to show the #2 team in the league's last game.  Things could change so stay posted to the site.

We know live in a world where stats, sometimes completely useless, can be found in anything. After reading a Black Heart Gold Pants article about a new stat - "The Trillion." (Don't worry Cat fans, Devan Bawinkel Is The World's Greatest Trillionaire.)

I'm sure some people are thinking so what, he didn't do anything at Miami blah blah blah. But anytime you infuse raw talent with Snyder magic you get results and that's something we need at this moment. I know the focus is on our Sunflower Showdown right now and I hope with everything in my body we kill KU on their ode to Collins night, but this can just be a little added fuel to the burning Kansas State fire!

Link to their post here.

They didn't consider Kansas State, but I can't really argue with the 7 teams they did pick.  (They may also have completely blanked on K-State's existence since they also left us off Kansas' win list.)  Just for my own amusement I put together KSU's profile in the same style for comparison and it seems to fall towards the bottom of the pile, but doesn't really look out of place.  (My RPI numbers are 3 days newer than theirs so there will be some discrepancies.)

Kansas State (21-4, 9-3) RPI: 6  SOS: 6

Top 25 RPI wins: #13 Texas A&M, at #15 Baylor, #19 Xavier, #25 Texas

Top 50 RPI wins: #37 Dayton (neutral court), at #43 UNLV

Losses: #1 Kansas, #29 Oklahoma State, at #39 Missouri, #60 Mississippi (neutral court)

Positives: 6-1 in true road games (5-1 in conference, 2-0 vs top 50 RPI), loss to Mississippi was early in the season, remaining schedule is solid, but except for Kansas should be wins, #6 in SOS, in #1 RPI conference, could really impress people with a win at Kansas

Negatives: loss to Mississippi and home loss to Oklahoma State hurt a bit, 2nd place in conference with little chance to get to first, 4 losses already and Kansas will probably provide a 5th

Remaining Schedule: at #46 Texas Tech, #39 Missouri, at #1 Kansas, #120 Iowa State

Verdict: ? 
I figure I'll leave that for everybody else to discuss.  It seems like the real wild card is, "Can they win the rematch with Kansas, and if not, how much of a handicap do they get for playing 2 games against the #1 team?"

As you watch the ksu nebraska watch for jacob pullen and dennis clemente to lead the way for the wildcats. Nebraska will hang around for the first few minutes of the game but the athletic ability and the inside men in jamar samuels, wally judge, curtis kelly and rodney mcgruder is just too strong for nebraska to contend with. The wildcats have lost three games in the big 12 all they should have won. the one against oklahoma state was the most dissapointing one to watch them lose but they didnt get to the foul line a lot and the defense didn't play that well. The KU game what should i say the ref clearly missed a foul on chris merrieweather in the final seconds on sheron collins and for the missouri loss KSU wasnt used to the full court press but they are now and there lookin like one of the best teams in k-state history and well be dancing well into march and possibly april. My prediction 27-4 (16-3)

headin into the NCAA championship tournament. BRING ON THE CATS!!
