1. Kansas Jayhawks (14-2, 2-1 Big 12)

Last week's games
63-58 loss at UCF
78-66 win vs. Oklahoma

Does Kansas look like the preseason No. 1 team that everyone thought would be a force to be reckoned with? Not necessarily, but when has a Bill Self-led team ever peaked in January? The Jayhawks have two All-American candidates and received tons of experience in nonconference play. If KU can keep its turnover numbers down, they will be among the favorites to win it all in March.
