A win at Kansas 7-1 top 10  team that you say is trending down would be viewed as a bigger win than a win on a neutral court  against an undefeated Arizona team     
 
not many non conference teams go into Kansas and come out with a win.    It’s happened but it’s rare    Kentucky last year and Arizona St won a couple years ago.

I don’t disagree with road vs neutral but from what I’ve seen from the two teams Arizona had performed as well or better than expected and Kansas has underperformed …a couple of their wins were nail biters that shouldn’t have been I think they will Have more losses come years end than zona BUT I’ll be thrilled to be wrong about that if we leave Alan field house with a win

Kansas should have more losses than Arizona since the Big 12 has better teams in it compared to the PAC 12.   If IU beats Kansas on the road then it will be considered one of the best wins of any team in the college basketball season.

I hope you’re right …the little I’ve seen Kansas it just looks like they are going to have a down year

Kansas will be fine.   They already have 3 top 50 wins away from home.  About to get another top 60 win at home and their only loss is to Tennessee which is 3 in Ken Pom.

Who cares what those wins are considered now?  When it comes to seeding, the importance as what they are at the end of the year.  If (when) North Carolina rights their ship, the win over North Carolina will be a solid one.  Kansas and Arizona will both very likely be top ten teams at the end of the year.

'trending down' Kansas beating the crap out of Seton Hall.  Up 25 with 5 1/2 minutes left.
