Kansas State turned one of the most hapless programs in the country around in the 1990s under Hall of Fame coach Bill Snyder, and the Wildcats have stayed competitive to varying degrees ever since, winning three Big 12 titles -- including last season.

Historically, Kansas has had a few more runs of success, though the Jayhawks' last conference championship came in the Big Eight in 1968. From 2010 to 2020, Kansas was the standard for Power 5 ineptitude, winning a total of 21 games.

Kansas' 5-0 start last season put the Jayhawks and Wildcats in the AP Top 25 together for two weeks, the first time since 2007 that had happened. Other than that, Kansas and Kansas State have appeared in the same AP poll only 17 times (all in 1995 and '96) in the 87-year history of the poll.

With both teams sitting at 6-2 heading into the final month of the season, the Jayhawks and Wildcats have a solid chance to finish the season ranked for just the second time ever.

In 1995, Kansas State was No. 7 and Kansas was ninth in the final Top 25.
