K-State continues to receive virtually no help from its non-con opponents, with all but Long Beach State, UMES, UTEP and West Virginia posting losses among those that played this weekend.
And those four teams' wins were over pretty bad teams: Pacific, Delaware State, SMU and Rutgers (for the second time). No help there.
