This season: Kansas has played to a 7-3 record so far with significant wins over Tennessee, Missouri, and Syracuse, all of which came on a neutral site. The Jayhawks fell to North Carolina, Duke, and UConn, but played two of those games without star freshman Darryn Peterson. He returned last week and is expected to be good to go. Meanwhile, NC State has the same record but not quite as strong a resume (63rd in strength of schedule). The Wolfpack's best wins have come over solid VCU and Boise State squads. Their losses have come against Seton Hall, Texas, and Auburn.
Series history: Kansas holds a 13-1 lead in the all-time series over NC State, which began back in 1959. The Jayhawks lost the first-ever matchup but have since won the past 13 contests, the most recent coming last year in Allen Fieldhouse as the first part of the home-and-home.

Meet the Coaches

Will Wade, NC State: Wade is in his first year at the helm at NCSU after previous coaching stops at Chattanooga, VCU, LSU, and McNeese State. He was implicated in the FBI probe into college basketball back in 2017 and was fired as a result of it in 2022, but has since revived his career following his dismissal from LSU.
Bill Self, Kansas: Self has never lost to the Wolfpack, holding a 3-0 record over them. He will look to maintain that undefeated record tonight.
