The No. 19 Kansas Jayhawks are reaching the end of their non-conference stretch. Until the start of Big 12 play, the Jayhawks are set to face NC State, Towson, and Davidson. So far through the early portion of the season, Kansas has managed relatively well. A 7-3 record has only seen losses to fellow Blue Bloods No. 14 UNC Tar Heels, No. 3 Duke, and No. 5 UConn.

While Kansas’ offense has consistently lagged, as the Jayhawks score only 74.6 points per game, which sits 178th in the nation. However, the Jayhawks’ defense has been one of the nation’s best by several metrics.
