In their last game against North Carolina State's Wolfpack, the Jayhawks secured an 80-74 victory. They demonstrated remarkable resilience by maintaining a lead despite 10 times tied and five lead changes throughout the game. Their shooting was efficient from beyond the arc with a three-point percentage of 48 percent, which could be pivotal against Wisconsin.


The previous home game saw Kansas outmaneuver Southern Utah's Thunderbirds with an 82-76 win. The team excelled in points in paint (50) and showed impressive two-point field goal accuracy at 54 percent. Their ability to control rebounds and convert turnovers into points was evident as they capitalized on every opportunity presented by their opponents.


Against Duke's Blue Devils, although it was a tighter contest, Kansas emerged victorious with a score of 69-64. A standout aspect of that performance was their shot-blocking prowess; they tallied an impressive total of 13 blocks for the game. This defensive tenacity will be crucial for disrupting Wisconsin’s offensive schemes.


The venue itself may play its part; Imperial Arena is known for its vibrant atmosphere which could energize the Jayhawks while adding pressure to the visiting Badgers.


Kansas has been consistent in converting defense into offense and will look to continue this trend against Wisconsin. With solid assists turnover ratios above one across past games, ball movement and decision-making will be key factors for success.


Fans can catch all the action on November 24th at 4 PM local time on ESPN channel number 206 or attend live at Imperial Arena to witness what promises to be an enthralling match-up between these two collegiate basketball powerhouses.
