KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Streaks are made to be broken or extended.

Before Kansas Jayhawks get ready for its Big 12 tournament this week, their seven-game winning streak was snapped on Saturday at Texas, just days after a Senior Night victory over Texas Tech on Tuesday.

The Jayhawks remained at No. 3 in this week’s Associated Press men’s basketball top 25 poll after not receiving any first-place votes.

Kansas State closed the season by finishing 1-1 last week, with a win at home against Oklahoma and a loss at West Virginia. The Wildcats dropped from No. 11 to No. 12.

Missouri won two games last week against Ole Miss and LSU, winning four in a row to close out the regular season and moving back into the poll at No. 25.

In early January, MU was ranked for the first time since the 2020-21 season, where they were No. 20, then dropping out before losing to Texas A&M and Florida.
