Kansas basketball picked up a big win over the Creighton Bluejays earlier this week, sending a message to the Big 12 and doubters.

There were a lot of folks who don’t think Kansas basketball deserved their No. 5 spot in the AP Poll. After the Jayhawks took down No. 8 Creighton last Tuesday at home though, Kansas should have earned some respect. It was Kansas’ second top-20 win in eight days, and the Jayhawks have a legit superstar in redshirt freshman Jalen Wilson.
