Kansas Gets Dominated at BYU, Social Media Explodes with Reactions

Plenty of people had plenty to say about Kansas' embarrassing loss on Tuesday night

Things already hadn't been going well for Kansas basketball of late as the Jayhawks had gone just 5-5 of their last 10 games, but Tuesday night was one of the worst nights in the very long history of the program.

BYU jumped on Kansas early Tuesday in Provo, Utah and kept its foot on the gas for all 40 minutes.

In the end it was a 91-57 BYU win, but somehow the final score felt closer than the actual Kansas performance.

The Jayhawks are still likely headed to the NCAA Tournament based off a strong season start but good luck finding anyone picking them to make it very far in the dance.

As you'd probably expect, social media was in a bit of a frenzy regarding Kansas during the game. Below are some of the best posts to X during and right after the game.

Abysmal Showing by Kansas Basketball

Kansas is down 20 at halftime at BYU.

This is the same Jayhawks team that is 3-4 in its last 7 games - which includes road losses to Kansas state and Utah.

Jayhawks look abysmal.

Kansas NCAA Tournament Seeding Streak in Real Jeopardy

Kansas was No. 15 in Saturday’s NCAA committee top 16 reveal. That was before losing Saturday to Utah and now getting blown out by BYU.

The last time Kansas was worse than a No. 4 seed in the NCAA tournament? 2000.

One of the sport’s most ridiculous streaks is in jeopardy.

Jarring Showing of Late by Kansas Basketball

BYU leads Kansas 64-35.

The Jayhawks were in the committee’s top 16 reveal on Saturday. They’re about to be 3-5 in their last 8 games. Just jarring to see the preseason #1 playing like this right now.

Rough Few Days in Utah for Jayhawks

Mission accomplished.
