KU shows it can win when Collins or Aldrich struggle
4 hours ago
Sherron Collins says last year’s Big 12 tournament quarterfinal loss to Baylor was a “What happened?” game. A year later, it’s pretty easy to see what happened. Collins made six of 20 shots, including four of 12 from three-point range, and turned the ball over a team-high five times. Cole Aldrich shot the ball just five times, had eight points and finished with one blocked shot. When the Jayhawks of a year ago didn’t get Collins and Aldrich’s best or close to it, they were very beatable. So they lost 71-64 to the Bears and boarded a bus headed for Lawrence so quickly, it felt as if they were never even there.

Oklahoma State keeps former coach's struggles in mind
4 hours ago
The game was a beatdown. The mood of the Oklahoma State faithful trended toward exuberant. But even as the Cowboys celebrated their 81-67 victory over rival Oklahoma and dreamed about a deep run in March, there was a sense of loss mixed with the win. Oklahoma State’s orange-clad fan base is learning that even the happiest of families sometimes faces one of life’s tougher truths: You can love the people you love, but you can’t live their lives for them.

<strong><span class="subhead">Best shoes >></span></strong> Colorado guard Cory Higgins wore a pair of sneakers that looked as if they had been bronzed, but without the stiffness of a precious metal alloy.
