KU enters the contest at 18-8, ranked #13 in the latest AP Poll. UTEP, meanwhile, is 12-10 and unranked. KenPom has the Jayhawks at #20 and the Miners at #139. For some perspective, that puts the Miners 10 spots below TCU and 34 spots higher than Iowa State.
The shocking stat of the day: UTEP leads the all-time series with Kansas 3-1. The most recent meeting between these two programs was a four-point 67-63 KU win in the Bahamas in November of 2013.
