Adams hit another runner in the paint and then Dajuan Harris scored inside as the Jayhawks started 4-4. That perfection extended to 6-6 from the field and forced Colorado to call a timeout down 14-4 four minutes into the game.

When Kansas plays like it did against Oklahoma State, it can beat any team in the country. The Jayhawks were the No. 1 team in college basketball for the season's first five AP polls. They started the season 7-0, including wins over No. 14 Michigan State (22-5, 13-3 in Big Ten) and No. 3 Duke (23-3, 15-1 in ACC).
