Jayhawks Rise to No 1 Beating TCU in Fort Worth
Kansas coach Bill Self hails a smart, improving No 1 team after an 85-66 win over TCU in Fort Worth. Jeff Hawkins scores 19, J.R. Giddens adds 12, Keith Langford drops 24 in his hometown. Guard play steadies after two starting bigs are held to one basket. Kansas climbs to No 1 as Langford leads late, and Self cautions about overvaluing polls.
