This season: After finishing nonconference play with a 10-3 record and solid wins over schools like Tennessee and NC State, the Jayhawks faltered in the first game of Big 12 action. KU was unable to pull away late and lost to UCF in Orlando for the second time in three years. Meanwhile, TCU boasts quite a strong resume for an unranked school, having defeated Florida earlier in the season and giving No. 2 Michigan its toughest battle yet. The Horned Frogs kicked off Big 12 play with a win over Baylor and will look to keep that momentum going.
Series history: The Jayhawks lead the all-time series 27-4, winning the last three matchups. Back in 2023, TCU handed Kansas one of its worst home losses in the Bill Self era, defeating them 83-60 in the Fieldhouse. That is the only time the Horned Frogs have come out victorious in Lawrence.
