It’s no secret that Phog Allen Fieldhouse is a tough place to play.
The line you’ll hear at least a handful of times tonight, “Bill Self has won more conference championships than he has lost at home.” The 200-9 record is impressive, but that doesn’t put the game out of reach. In fact, UK has won 7 of 11 in Lawrence, the only team with a winning percentage over .500 at KU that has played at least five games in “The Phog.”
Even though the Cats have fared well over the years in Lawrence, and have beaten them handedly in recent years, the last two trips to Lawrence have been infamous atrocities.
