The No. 17 Kansas Jayhawks have established themselves as a defensive powerhouse this season. Something many probably would have doubted with so much anticipation on their offense heading into this season.
But while Kansas’ offense has stuttered in the early portion, its defense has stepped up to the plate in nearly every category, barring one. Kansas has struggled to create turnovers and disrupt passing lanes, specifically creating steals. In Kansas’ latest win, a 90-61 win over the Davidson Wildcats, it could serve as a potential watershed moment for the Jayhawks as they forced 13 steals on the day.
