What to Know

The #10 Kansas Jayhawks and the #8 Baylor Bears are set to square off in a Big 12 matchup at 4 p.m. ET Feb. 5 at Allen Fieldhouse. The teams split their matchups last year, with the Bears winning the first 77-69 at home and Kansas taking the second 71-58.

Kansas was able to grind out a solid victory over the Iowa State Cyclones on Tuesday, winning 70-61. Forward David McCormack and guard Dajuan Harris Jr. were among the main playmakers for the Jayhawks as the former posted a double-double on 14 points and 14 boards and the latter had 14 points and eight assists.

Meanwhile, the West Virginia Mountaineers typically have all the answers at home, but on Monday Baylor proved too difficult a challenge. Baylor sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with an 81-77 win. The overall outcome was to be expected, but West Virginia made it more of a game than the oddsmakers had predicted. The Bears relied on the efforts of guard James Akinjo, who had 25 points, and forward Jonathan Tchamwa Tchatchoua, who had 14 points in addition to six rebounds.

The Jayhawks are now 18-3 while Baylor sits at 19-3. A pair of offensive stats to keep an eye on: Kansas enters the contest with a 49.10% field goal percentage, good for eighth best in college basketball. Baylor is not quite as good, but they are no chumps, either: they rank 20th in college basketball when it comes to field goal percentage, with 48.10% on the season. This one is shaping up to be an exciting offensive shootout.
