Three games remain in the Big 12’s regular season and there is plenty left to be determined.

Kansas and Texas are tied for first with a final game showdown set for next week in Austin. Player and coach of the year, all-conference selections, NCAA Tournament seeding...all on the line over the next few games.

On today’s episode of The Star’s SportsBeat KC podcast, Kellis Robinett, who covers Kansas State and the Big 12, breaks down the race, the awards and the bracketology. It’s been an amazing year for the conference, which will enter the NCAA Tournament in two weeks with a majority of its teams in the field.

Four months of tight regular-season play has built toward a dramatic finish. After that, March Madness awaits for Kansas, K-State and other Big 12 programs.
