Fun Facts

The Jayhawks are the only "Power 5" team to rank in the top 21 in both field goal percentage and field goal percentage defense. They lead the Big 12 in both categories.

A Kansas win would give the Jayhawks their second season sweep against TCU, and the first since the 2012-13 season, the first for TCU in the conference.
