Kansas Does it Again

Last year, Kansas beat Texas to clinch their 12 conference title.
History repeated itself this year as Kansas won over Texas again for their
13th conference title.
Coach Self is the first coach ever to win 13 conference championships in a
row. UCLA won 13 also, but with three different coaches during that time.
Kansas is 4-0 this year against TOP 5 opponents in the AP poll. They are
9-1 under Coach Self.
Kansas have now won 13 conference titles in a row (tying with UCLA) and 17 out of the 21 championships since the Big 12 started. The last team to win the Big 12 conference title before Kansas started their streak was Oklahoma State. Kansas have won 60 overall as a member of the Missouri Valley, Big6, Big 7, Big 8 and Big 12. Their first conference title was in 1908 as a member of the MVC..

Remembering our Angels
Both
mother and daughter, Briana and Addison, were diagnosed with
stage IV melanoma just weeks a part from each other. In a rare
medical phenomenon, Addison was born with melanoma after the cancer
sneaked into her bloodstream while in the womb. Heartbreakingly,
Briana earned her wings after a short 8 month fight with
melanoma cancer in February 2012. Little Addison beat her odds time
and time again, but after gracing the earth for nearly 27 months, she was
called to the heavens to join her mother in eternal rest and comfort.
We have established a non-profit foundation titled Addison's
Army Against Melanoma to honor our girls. You can follow our awareness
efforts and events on Facebook,
Twitter and Instagram.
