Kansas hops back into Big 12 play with a visit to Austin to take on a Texas team that almost sprung the upset in Lawrence earlier this month. The Longhorns are a team who I think can take a step forward towards the end of this season, making this a difficult opponent tonight.
For starters, the offense has been one of the better ones in the Big 12. The Longhorns are scoring 1.06 points per trip in Big 12 play, good for 2nd in the league, although that is despite ranking 287th in the nation in shots at the rim.
