The Kansas men’s basketball team is unranked in the Associated Press Top 25 poll for the first time since the 2020-21 season. Kansas was third in the “others receiving votes” category with 25 votes. The Jayhawks went 1-1 last week while ranked No. 23 in the country.

Kansas will look to build on its recent momentum when it travels to Boulder to face Colorado in a Big 12 matchup. The 25th-ranked Jayhawks are sporting an 18-9 record (9-7 Big 12), just secured a dominant win over Oklahoma State at home.

Colorado is 2-1 since losing to KU 71-59 on Feb. 11 at Allen Fieldhouse. The Buffs defeated UCF 76-63 on Feb. 15 in Boulder, lost to Iowa State 79-65 on Feb. 18 in Ames, Iowa, and upended Baylor 76-74 on Saturday in Boulder. ...

Hunter Dickinson’s season-high 32 points and late-game heroics lifted Kansas to a 71-64 win over Colorado on the road.

Kansas basketball’s season could be on the right track again, after a win at home against Oklahoma State. But did the Jayhawks then go beat Colorado?
