Sure they had to go into overtime in order to beat the Buffs in Colorado this week, and have had several other close calls lately but Bill Self and the Jayhawks didn’t lose any of them, and in college basketball no matter how much better you are than your opponent it is always an uphill battle to get road conference wins. Just ask Villanova how difficult it is to go on the road, or Texas or Michigan State maybe. The three teams accounted for the biggest movement in the top ten as they dropped to 4, 10 and 14 respectively. Their losses were everyone else’s gain as the only upward movement was replacing the losers. The overall lesson from this week, very little has changed.
Kansas Is Still No. 1, Until You Can Prove Otherwise
↵Winning conference games on the road is so difficult in fact that it would not surprise me in the least if Kansas were to lose to Texas tonight.
↵The difference between No. 1 and No. 5 doesn’t seem to be too great in terms of talent and I have no doubt we are going to see at least two more teams hold the top spot before the end of the month.
