The highest anticipated game in Week 5 of the 2025-26 NCAA season between the No. 5 UConn Huskies and the No. 21 Kansas Jayhawks will take place at Allen Fieldhouse, giving the Jayhawks a home-court advantage. However, Dan Hurley’s Huskies stepped onto that floor with a mission, and they have been successful.

Even without their star player, Tarris Reed Jr., for the first time in program history, the UConn Huskies walked out with a win over the Jayhawks after losing to them four times in the past. The No. 5 Huskies overcame a tough home-court environment, showcasing disciplined offense and stifling defense to edge the No. 21 Jayhawks. And to give credit where it’s due, it was Huskies’ freshman Braylon Mullins who came in clutch and dropped the team’s highest 17 points, after missing over a month due to an ankle injury.

With this win under their belt, the team will head into their upcoming games with unbreakable confidence. The Huskies will play the East Texas A&M Lions for their next game on December 5th.
