The Jayhawks beat Texas yesterday in the last game of the regular season. This win was special because it was KU's 1900th win (third most in NCAA history; Kentucky has 1926 and North Carolina has 1903). It was also their 50th Conference Championship (more than any other school in the NCAA, though Kentucky has 49); that's 50 titles in 99 years!
This means that KU has the #1 seed in the Big 12 tourney and probably a #1 in the NCAA tourney. And after all of this the fans in Allen Fieldhouse did NOT storm the court. Awesome.
One might also recall that in mid-December people were saying that KU was the second best team in the Kansas… to Wichita State. The Shockers are now 17-14.

On a completely unrelated note: KC Wolf was elected to the Mascot Hall of Fame, class of 2006. I guess congratulations are in order.

If I may make an addition, Wichita State is now in its rightful place--3rd in the state. Kansas State sits at 21-10, 10 wins in conference, fourth seed in the Big 12 tourney (with a bye), and a chance at the NCAA tournament; this is the Wildcats' best team since 1987-88. Go Cats!
35 out of the last 36.
