They went 10-3 in their non-conference games as they had a good start to the season, but they were not really tested by many quality opponents.

They were one of the worst teams in the Big 12 this season and even got kicked out by Cincinnati in the 1st round of their conference tourny, but they have actually played much better at home in recent games. They have actually won 5 of their last 6 as well as 7 of their last 9 games at home with their only 2 losses in that span coming against top opponents in their conference, Arizona and Texas Tech, and they have won their last 3 straight games there with a quality win over Iowa State as well.
