Fueled by a 14-0 run to open the second half and a strong defensive performance, the Kansas Jayhawks rolled to a 66-48 victory over Omaha in the season opener on Tuesday night at Allen Fieldhouse.
Tre White scored 22 points, top recruit Tyran Stokes added 15 in his Kansas debut, and the No. 17 Jayhawks overcame early stretches of sloppy offense and porous perimeter defense to beat Fordham 95-65 in their season opener Monday night.
Following three road games in four weeks, the Kansas Jayhawks will return home to David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium this week to host UCF on Saturday at 2:45 p.m. The game will be televised by ESPN2 with Courtney Lyle (play-by-play) and Rene Ingoglia (analyst) will have the call.
Kansas freshman Tyran Stokes and fifth year Trey Kaufman-Renn have been named to the 50-member 2026-27 Jersey Mike's Naismith Trophy Men's College Player of the Year Watch List, the Naismith Awards announced today.
