No. 2 Kansas thumped Iowa State on Saturday, 89-66, to make their case as the nation's best team.

The win came just hours after No. 1 Ohio State, previously unbeated, lost to Wisconsin.

"I want to be No. 1," Marcus Morris said. "I want to have that chip on our shoulder every time we go out. I want to be the one that gets everybody's best shot because I believe we can take it."

The Jayhawks held the top spot for 14 weeks in the regular season last year.
