Regardless of the final outcome, one thing is certain: Kansas State will be heading to the Sugar Bowl for the first time in program history.

If TCU beats Kansas State, the Horned Frogs will go to the playoffs, and the Wildcats will go to the Sugar Bowl. Should K-State finish TCU’s perfect season, the Wildcats would still go to the Sugar Bowl. TCU can still get into the playoffs, but K-State cannot. Even if TCU loses, the Frogs will go to another New Year’s Bowl of Six, while Big 12 K-State will head to NOLA.
Unless LSU beats Georgia in Atlanta, Kansas State will face Alabama in the Allstate Sugar Bowl.
