Changing allegiances

KU fans cheered when it was announced that Missouri beat K-State. That had to be a first. Isn’t Missouri supposed to be Kansas’ biggest rival?

Intended fashion faux pas

Colorado coach Jeff Bzdelik and Kansas coach Bill Self and their staffs wore tennis shoes with their suits instead of the regular dress shoes. Most college basketball coaches did the same on Saturday. Their goal was to raise cancer awareness.

Former area standout sighting

Casey Crawford, Blue Valley North High School in Overland Park alumnus, watched the game from the Colorado bench. He transferred from Wake Forest and is sitting out this season.

Injury Update

Sherron Collins bumped his knee early in the first half of Saturday’s game when he went back to the locker room. He returned a few minutes later but only played for about one minute the rest of the half. Collins played a lot better after the injury. He had four turnovers and no points before it occurred and one turnover and eight points afterwards.
