THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 2011 PAGE 7 Q: Including Mike Quade, how many managers have the Cullis had? A: 57 (Quade is the 30th to manage two seasons or fewer) --- @ESPNStatsInfo Contenders for basketball national title MORNING BREW The last two years, the Jayhawks have entered the college basketball season as one of the favorites to win the national title. Though Kansas is ranked No.13 in both polls, these three teams have the best chance at cutting down the nets in New Orleans. NORTH CAROLINA Yes, I know that some Kansas fans still have ill feelings toward UNC coach Roy Williams, but Williams' departure ended up working out pretty well for both sides. Williams and the North Carolina faithful have a lot to be excited about entering the season. The Tar Heels received 62 of the 65 first place votes in the coaches' poll and are returning National Player of the Year favorite sophomore forward Harrison Barnes. Anything short of a title for North Carolina will go down as major disappointment in Chapel Hill. North Carolina's only competition on paper in the ACC is archrival Duke, and all eyes will be on the Tar Heels' Dec. 3 matchup with No.2 Kentucky. Speaking of Kentucky, coach John Calipari will welcome another immensely talented recruiting class to Lexington, KENTUCKY Ky., as well as returning key players from the previous season. Sophomore guard Doron Lamb and NBA prospect Terrence Jones will provide arguably Calipari's best Kentucky team with some much-needed experience. Headlining Calipari's NBA point guard pipeline is freshman Marquis Teague, brother of the Atlanta Hawk's Jeff Teague. Last season, Brandon Knight was more of a calm, collected point guard, but fans can expect Teague to bring back a similar athleticism and swagger to that of John Wall. The Jayhawks will get a firsthand look at the second-ranked Wildcats on Nov. 12 in the Champions Classic at Madison Square Garden. OHIO STATE The Buckeyes enter the season ranked third and as the overwhelming favorite to win the Big 10 title. Coach Thad Matta and the Buckeyes had a terrific season last year, finishing with a 34-3 record. With the return of sophomore center Jared Sullinger and senior guard William Buford, Ohio State should be right back where they left off last season; contending for titles. Despite returning a strong nucleus of talent from last season, the Buckeyes are an extremely young team, consisting of five freshmen and six sophomores. The inexperienced Buckeye squad could struggle some before hitting its stride come conference play. The Buckeyes do have a challenging non-conference schedule that will build experience in the long haul. Ohio State will host No. 6 Duke in November before making its way to Lawrence to take on the Jayhawks in December. - Edited by Stefanie Penn THIS WEEK IN SPORTS Sport Thur. Fri. Sat. Sun. Mon. Tues.
