3. Kansas Jayhawks

Previous Ranking: 3

Record: 10-1

Kansas hasn’t faced a challenge for quite some time and that won’t change soon. The Jayhawks travel to UNLV on Thursday and then get TCU in Fort Worth as their Big 12 opener.

Frank Mason III still dominates the KU stat sheet with 20.3 points, 4.6 rebounds and 5.6 assists.

The real story so far is Josh Jackson’s level of play right now though. The potential lottery pick is second on the team in scoring and leads in rebounding. He is also blocking an incredible 1.5 shots per game despite being a wing. KU will be tough to dethrone in Big 12 play again.
