The season for Kansas Jayhawks basketball technically began with a commanding 94-51 win over Green Bay Phoenix on Monday. With that being said, KU was favored to win that contest by 30. This made Friday night’s matchup against the North Carolina Tar Heels feel like the real start to the season… and it did not go great, losing 87-74. There were some positives, however.
In what felt like a North Carolina revenge game on the road, thanks to Kansas getting the best of UNC in the 2022 National Championship game, KU actually started off the game incredibly well.
