The Jayhawks, coming off a string of impressive performances, look poised to continue their dominance on their home court.

This balance of offensive efficiency and defensive fortitude led them to a victory with a score of 71-63.
KU's performance against Tennessee Volunteers on November 22nd further solidified their status as one of the top teams in college basketball.

The Golden Eagles edged out KU by scoring more points off turnovers and showcasing better three-point shooting accuracy. Despite this setback, KU has shown resilience and an ability to bounce back stronger after each challenge.
