PROVO, Utah -- Richie Saunders scored 22 points to lead BYU, and the Cougars handed No. 23 Kansas a monumental 91-57 defeat on Tuesday night.
At 34 points in margin, Tuesday's loss tied for the worst under Jayhawks coach Bill Self and was the third-worst defeat in the storied program's history, according to ESPN Research. In 2021, Self's team also lost by 34, that time to USC in the NCAA tournament.
The defeat also meant the Jayhawks, who fell to Utah 74-67 on Saturday and have not led through their past 80 minutes of basketball, suffered back-to-back losses for the first time this season in conference play.
