▪ ABOUT KANSAS (18-4, 6-3): The seventh-ranked Jayhawks are coming off a 77-59 home victory over Kansas State. Hunter Mickelson has missed the last four games with a high ankle sprain but has practiced this week. Kansas has lost three straight Big 12 road games. The Jayhawks enter the game trailing Oklahoma and West Virginia (both 7-2 in the Big 12).
▪ ABOUT TCU (10-12, 1-8): The Horned Frogs lost at Oklahoma 95-72 on Tuesday but a week ago beat Tennessee, a team that knocked off Kentucky a few days later. TCU played Kansas tough in Lawrence on Jan. 16, falling 70-63. The last four games in the series, all won by KU, have a six-point average margin. The Frogs give themselves a chance when they hold opponents to under 40 percent from the field. They’re 7-0 in those games.
