LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) — Kansas has spent the better part of the past 15 years presiding over the Big 12.

Whether that streak continues could come down to 48 hours.

The No. 12 Jayhawks and No. 14 Texas Tech are each a game behind Kansas State heading into a showdown Saturday in Lubbock, Texas. Should they win what essentially amounts to an elimination game in the conference race, Kansas welcomes the No. 23 Wildcats to Allen Fieldhouse on Monday night.

“The key to having success is you worry about Saturday,” Jayhawks coach Bill Self said. “You don’t even think about Monday. You worry about Saturday and after Saturday is complete, regardless of the outcome, then you’ve got to totally retool them. We won’t get back here until probably 2 in the morning, and then you have a 30-minute prep day for K-State the next day. We’ll start worrying about that whenever the horn sounds in Lubbock but not until then.”
