It’s difficult to over-emphasize how important Monday night will be for the Kansas basketball team — even without playing — as it relates to the possibility of continuing its 14-year conference title streak.
The interactive simulator at mattxsmith.github.io/big12.html, which has KenPom odds for each remaining conference game, shows us why.
Here’s the setup: The Jayhawks trail Kansas State and Texas Tech by one game with two games remaining. As of now, the simulator gives the Red Raiders a roughly 72 percent chance of winning the Big 12, with the Wildcats at 66 percent and KU around 17 percent.
