KU Season Projection

111 teams still have not played 4 games which is the bare minimum to have any semblance of validity. But as it stands as of this morning, based on my DPPI, KU is projected to win between 22.3 and 24.6 games through conference play (31 games). Right now, the way the DPPI projection works, the 22.3 is slightly more valid. Let's say KU will win 23-24 games. Texas Tech is currently ranked No. 1 in the DPPI and Kansas is 16th.

KU has Tennessee (ranked 4th in the DPPI) as a 3.8 point favorite with a 35% probability of winning.

The DPPI is fairly well aligned with the AP top 25 with the exception of;
TCU-193rd
Virginia-146th
Kentucky-110th
LSU-69th
Buffalo-53rd
Clemson-49th
