SportsBeat KC: Should KU play for March now? Reasons for moving K-State-Stanford game
Kansas goes into Saturday’s game against Iowa State two games back in the loss column in the Big 12 race. Have the Jayhawks reached the point where playing for the league championship could become a secondary consideration as they spend the rest of the season preparing for the NCAA Tournament?
Beat writers Jesse Newell and Gary Bedore break down that notion on SportsBeat KC, The Star’s daily sports podcast with host Blair Kerkhoff.
