Kansas HOLDS OFF TCU for FIFTH STRAIGHT WIN [FULL Game Recap + Reaction] | CBS Sports
Kansas TCU from Fort Worth final seconds. One frocks down three looking to get off of three to get this game square. But the J Hawks D was up to it late in this one as they get an impressive road W 14th quad win this season for Kansas. 63 58 Grady Dick Leatherway with 19. 23 and five are the J Hawks 11 and four in conference play. Let's get some insight from CBS College basketball analyst Matt Norlander and Matt this team in Kansas that avenges a 23 point loss to this TCU squad that came in Lawrence earlier. They get their 14th quad one win as I mentioned but let's talk about the big 12 right six teams in the top 25 three in the top 10.
How do you suppose games like this are going to be a big deal. Kansas for the coming NCAA tournament. That's a good angle there Jim because you got to figure that it probably will harden Kansas although normally coaches are so looking forward to getting out of league play by the time the NCAA tournament arrives so you can get some some fresh looks at some teams and coaching staffs that just don't know you that well. You got to figure this is only helping Kansas bill self by virtue of this win. I think it just reinforces his late arriving candidacy for national coach of the year. He's not the only one that painter produced on a really really nice job and there are many others still in that conversation but this Kansas team lost so much of that national championship team from a season ago that no one thought Kansas would be in this kind of spot. So yeah I think there's a big 12 is going to send almost certainly at least seven to the tournament.
There's a chance it could send eight. I guess there's a distant chance it could send nine but seven is a lock and Kansas is the best of them. The win here essentially guarantees Kansas at least a share of the big 12 regular season title. Mathematically it's not there yet but in practical terms when you look at what Kansas has remaining on the schedule it would just the odds are so very very against the idea that it will not at worst finish with a tie atop league standings. And of course it's got a very healthy chance to be the stand alone champ once we get to the final weekend of the regular season.
