Game Primer: How To Watch, Things To Know for Texas Tech at Kansas
It's Senior Night for the Kansas Jayhawks, and this matchup will be extremely notable for one of the two players being honored tonight. Kevin McCullar played last season for the Texas Tech Red Raiders, and after the reception he received earlier this season, it would be difficult to blame him if he is a little bit juiced up for this one. But the Red Raiders are looking to get the feather in the cap of their NCAA Tournament resume.
Kansas comes into the game ranked #3 in the AP Poll and #4 in the Coaches Poll. Texas Tech is unranked.
Kansas leads the all-time series 42-7, including a 21-1 record in Allen Fieldhouse. The Jayhawks have won the last three in the series, seven of the last 8 and 9 of the last 11. The only win for the Red Raiders in Lawrence came on January 2, 2018.
