Desperate rematch for KU as Senior Night looms
Kansas guard Kevin McCullar Jr. states the goal remains to win the next game after a Baylor loss and elimination from Big 12 title contention. The Jayhawks sit at 9-7 in league play, tied with BYU and Texas Tech, and hold a No. 12 seed in ESPN bracketology and a No. 6 Big 12 seed, reflecting a cooled title chase. Hunter Dickinson notes that a 1 or 2 seed isn't necessary to win the NCAA Tournament, citing UConn's 4 seed hot streak as example.
