Kansas' run of close games continued on Saturday with a narrow 80-79 victory over Texas Tech at United Supermarkets Arena.

Josh Jackson's free throw with less than three seconds remaining gave the Jayhawks a victory after he was fouled by Zach Smith on a drive to the basket with the score tied at 79 and the clock winding down.

Despite the score being closer than Kansas would have liked, Jackson will remember this game for a long time. The star freshman finished the game with 31 points and 11 rebounds, a stat line no Jayhawks player has put up in over five years, per ESPN Stats & Info:
