Iowa State and Oklahoma State have given Kansas a huge gift.  Now the Jayhawks
need to capitalize on that gift and defeat Baylor.

Among the eight key offensive stats, Kansas has the advantage in five; Baylor
grabs more total rebounds per game, has a higher offensive rebound precentage,
and attempts more free throws per field goal attempt.  Among the seven key
defensive stats, Kansas has the advantage in only two, namely more steals per
game and fewer personal fouls per game.

Common Opponents
================
There are six common opponents, five conference members and Texas Southern:

BU  -10 ISU on road ( -7 neutral court)
KU  +12 BU  at ohme ( +9 neutral court)

All six comparisons favor Kansas by an average of 11.5 points.

Players to Watch
================
Most minutes          Manu Lecomte              guard
Leading scorer        Manu Lecomte              guard
Leading rebounder     Jo Acuil                  forward
Most assists          Manu Lecomte              guard
Most steals           Jake Lindsey              guard
Most blocks           Jo Acuil                  forward

Most fouls            Jo Acuil                  forward

Manu Lecomte is expected to play despite a shoulder injury.  Meanwhile, Billy
Preston is gone.  Finally we have closure.

Closure, indeed. Time to focus on making the most of what we got.

Mahalo, asteroid!
