How Kansas' Big 12 supremacy unraveled
were mathematically eliminated from winning at least a share of a Big 12 regular-season championship. Oklahoma State and Texas both won that Saturday during George W. Bush's first term, and it became impossible for both to lose their two remaining contests and allow Kansas to force a tie.
Fifteen years and one week later, it happened again.
Kansas' loss at Oklahoma on Tuesday officially took the Jayhawks (22-8, 11-6) out of the running for a Big 12 regular-season title. Texas Tech (25-5, 13-4) and Kansas State (23-7, 13-4) both won Monday, giving each team a two-game lead on Kansas with one game remaining.
How did it all happen?
