3. Kansas Jayhawks

Previously Ranked: 5

Record: 7-1

Kansas has gone 7-0 since dropping their season opener to Indiana. Stanford was just the latest opponent to get rolled by the Jayhawks. There isn’t really a test remaining before Big 12 play, but a matchup with former Big 12 member Nebraska holds some nostalgic value for the old conference mates.

Frank Mason III continues to push for National POY honors, as he is averaging 19.6 points, 4.5 boards and 5.4 assists per game. He is doing all the things KU needs to stay atop the national and Big 12 conversations. Freshman Josh Jackson is still as good as advertised as well with 14.0 points and 5.4 rebounds. However, this team needs more consistent inside scoring from the combination of Carlton Bragg Jr., Landen Lucas and Udoka Azubuike.
