One of 10 undefeated teams remaining in NCAA Division I and the only unbeaten squad in the Big 12 Conference, Kansas earned NCAA.com Team of the Week honors after the Jayhawks registered a tenth straight win over Tulsa.
The 10-0 mark to start the season for Kansas matches the third-best start to a season and the fourth time ever to begin 10-0 in school history. The Jayhawks were rewarded for its strong start with the No. 20 national ranking in the latest Associated Press Top 25 poll. A week earlier, Kansas had entered the poll at No. 22, which marked the program’s first national ranking since January 14, 2013. The Jayhawks and head coach Brandon Schneider are undefeated through the first 10 games for the first time since the 2019-20 season. Kansas is maintaining the momentum from last season when they went 21-10 and earned a trip to the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2013.
