No. 5 Texas vs. No. 9 Kansas: Preview, How to Watch & Betting Odds

The No. 5 Texas Longhorns will visit the No. 9 Kansas Jayhawks Monday night at Allen Fieldhouse in what will be the first of two meetings during conference play for the two teams.

Texas (19-4, 8-2) is coming off one of its best wins of the season after taking down the then-No. 7 Kansas State Wildcats 69-66 on Saturday in Manhattan. The Longhorns trailed by as many as 14 in the first half but rallied in the final frame to secure their fourth double-digit comeback win of conference play.

Forward Christian Bishop and guard Sir'Jabari Rice combined to score 23 of their 28 in second half, as Bishop hit the go-ahead layup with under a minute left to seal the deal.

After a three-game losing streak in the middle of January, the Jayhawks have recovered but are still coming off a 68-53 loss to the No. () Iowa State Cyclones on Saturday.

Kansas has slipped all the way down to sixth in a loaded Big 12, but that's hardly a reason to doubt the defending national champs. With the dynamic pairing of forward Jalen Wilson and guard Gradey Dick, the Jayhawks are capable of beating any team in the country.
