Spiraling No. 12 Texas hosts surging No. 23 Kansas

No. 12 Texas will look to get back on the winning track and produce its first ever season-sweep of Kansas when the Longhorns host the surging No. 23 Jayhawks in a key Big 12 dustup Tuesday in Austin, Texas.

The Longhorns rolled past Kansas 84-59 on Jan. 2 in Lawrence, handing the Jayhawks their worst home loss in coach Bill Self's tenure at Kansas. But Texas enters Tuesday's game on a down note after Saturday's 84-82 home loss at No. 13 West Virginia in which the Longhorns coughed up a 19-point second-half lead.

Things came unraveled for the Longhorns in their loss to West Virginia at the under-16 minute media timeout as Courtney Ramey and Andrew Jones got into a verbal sparring bout and had to be separated by their teammates.
