Second Half

18:55- Missouri guard Keon Lawrence makes a jumper that cuts the Kansas lead to 10 at 45-35. The Tigers might not have won, but it wasn’t Lawrence’s fault. He finished with 25 points.

12:28- Darrell Arthur misses an alley-oop, then misses a put back. Finally, he tips in the failed put back. Kansas leads 62-47.

9:36- Sasha Kaun sinks a free throw to complete a three-point play after he was fouled on a hook shot. This was Kaun’s best game since he led the team in scoring against DePaul in December.

Self on Bob Knight

“I’m disappointed for selfish reasons,” Self said. “It’s like when Barry Sanders retired from football. He couldn’t do that to all the people out there, retiring that early. That’s kind of how I feel about Coach Knight because he’s great for our league.”

Orange Bowl Celebration

At halftime, the football team was officially given the Orange Bowl Trophy, a glass case filled with oranges. Before about half the team walked on the court, the lights went off in Allen Fieldhouse and a highlight video was played.

Double the pleasure

The Athletics Department played an extra highlight video before the game started. The P.A. system was also set at a louder volume for the announcements. All of it was intended to get the fans more pumped up than usual, and it worked. Monday night’s crowd was loud.
