Kansas has had a rollercoaster season with impressive wins but also some notable losses that will impact their résumé. Victories over high-caliber opponents like North Carolina and Duke showcase their potential and talent, while games against teams like Iowa State and West Virginia, where they fell short, highlight vulnerabilities in their game. Their strong defensive numbers are a positive factor, but they need to improve their consistency on offense, especially in tough matchups. Looking ahead, games against Houston and Baylor will be crucial; winning even one of those could significantly bolster their standing and reshape tournament perceptions.
