The odds are really against Texas since Kansas has won 40 straight games at Allen Fieldhouse, the nation’s longest active home winning streak.

The Jayhawks have a 15-6 lead in the series, including an 84-74 victory in their last meeting in the 2008 Big 12 championship game. The Longhorns took the last regular-season meeting, 72-69 in Austin on Feb. 11, 2008.

Texas controls their own destiny on Saturday as far as keeping their season alive. A win in Lawrence may not be absolutely necessary to reach the NCAA tournament, but it would remove all doubt.

Can the Longhorns make up for an inconsistent season with a big win?
