National writers ignore what Kansas State Football accomplished on Saturday.

The Kansas State football team received a little love in the Associated Press national ranking released on Sunday- very little.

Voters ignored the Wildcats last week. Disappointing, when you consider the number of 4-loss team who are listed.

Oklahoma, Oklahoma State and West Virginia are the other Big 12 teams in the December 4, poll (see below)
