Who: Creighton

Series: Kansas leads, 26-13

Shooting woes: The Jayhawks have struggled to make shots for much of the young season. Last time out, Kansas started off with a field goal percentage of 67 percent, en route to a 23-point opening quarter. However, KU ended up with a measly 35.7 percent on its shots from the floor by the conclusion of its overtime win over North Dakota. The Jayhawks have now shot under 40 percent in four of their first five games from the floor, with an average clip of 34.7 percent on the year. It is even worse from downtown, where Kansas is hitting just 32 percent of its shots.

Fast start: Kansas came out firing on all cylinders out of the gate in Sunday’s thriller. The Jayhawks scored 23 points in the first frame, knocking down 8-of-12 shots, including 2-of-3 from long range. The 23-point first period was 10 more points than any other opening quarter mark this season. In addition, it tied the highest first quarter total by Kansas under head coach Brandon Schneider. It will be crucial for the Jayhawks to get off to a strong start on the road in a hostile environment, if they hope to move to 4-2 on the year.

Streaking: Junior guard Jessica Washington returned to the court after her one game suspension and Kansas was certainly thankful to have her back. Washington scored a team-high 19 points in 35 minutes played on 17 shot attempts. She hit 5-of-6 shots from the free throw line, including two to ice the game. Washington was one of three double digit scorers for the Jayhawks and the offensive appeared to be much better with her back running the show.

Slumping: There seemed to be a lid on the basket anytime sophomore Kylee Kopatich unleashed a shot on Sunday. Kopatich hit just one of her 12 shots from the floor in 28 minutes of action. She even took 11 shots from long range. This performance coming after Kopatich notched seven points, including two treys in the second overtime of Kansas’ double-overtime victory over Oral Roberts.
