Before Jayhawk fans – if in fact there are any who regularly visit this site – get all ruffled in the shorts, let me get a little more specific. Kansas has won a Big 12-record 12 consecutive regular-season conference championships and 16 in the 20-year history of the conference.
That leaves the Jayhawks just one shy of the all-time record for consecutive conference championships set by perhaps the greatest college coach ever, John Wooden, and his incomparable UCLA Bruins from 1967-79. And there is a very high chance Kansas will equal that record in the 2016-17 season.
But circling back to the main emphasis of this article, Oklahoma’s championship run in the Big 12 under head coach Bob Stoops, although not accomplished in consecutive seasons is almost as remarkable.
