Top-ranked Kansas gets the spotlight on ESPN2 Wednesday night at 9:00pm EST as they travel to Colorado. It should just be a showcase game for Kansas since Colorado is one of the worst teams in the Big 12 for college basketball picks. The Jayhawks have won six straight games since losing against Tennessee while Kansas is ranked #1 and are simply not worried about it. "We'd rather be two games up in the Big 12 than be No. 1 right now," senior guard Sherron Collins said. "No. 1 doesn't mean anything because at the end of the year there's only going to be one No. 1." Kansas is a 14.5-point favorite in college basketball odds at online sportsbooks with a betting total of 151.5. Kansas has been playing very well of late in college basketball picks and one of the reasons why is the increased production of center Cole Aldrich. He is averaging 14.6 points in the last five games. "It was a slow start for him at the beginning of the year. Now he's Cole again," Collins said. "He was just in a slump and he was going through some hard time. I'm glad he came around now and not later in the year." The Jayhawks won on Saturday at Kansas State as Aldrich had 18 points and 11 rebounds. Kansas now leads Texas by two games in the Big 12. The Jayhawks and Longhorns meet on Monday in the biggest game of the conference season. Kansas will try and avoid looking ahead to that game as they face Colorado on Wednesday.
