The Kansas Jayhawks look to move into a tie atop the Big 12 when they face the Missouri Tigers in the teams' 260th meeting tonight.

Kansas is off to its best start in conference play since the 2004-05 season and is beginning a rough stretch in which it plays three of its next five on the road.

Kansas has won five straight over Missouri and two in a row at Columbia but are only 2-6-1 ATS in the last nine meetings in Missouri.      

The Tigers come in having won three straight and seven of eight. They have beaten both of their Top 25 opponents this season, defeating Southern California and Texas in Austin on Feb. 4.

Missouri has won 15 consecutive home games, and it's averaging 90.5 points at Mizzou Arena this season. The Tigers, though, have been held to less than 75 points in three of their last four games against Kansas at Columbia.
