KSU won their first game but things are looking even tougher for the Wildcats going forward. There has been quite a bit of commentary about KSU only having two players over 6' this season, two 6'1 forwards. One is a frosh, Malone, and the other was supposed to be Leick, a transfer from Nebraska who sat out last season. I just read that Leick is out for the season with a torn ACL, leaving Malone as the lone Wildcat taller than 5'11.

Just noticed that Babhorn had mentioned Leick's injury in another post.

Big 12 moves to 7-0 with wins by Texas and OU Saturday. Four more games on Sunday.

From Friday to Sunday, the Big 12 started off 11-0.
Texas' 70 to 60 win over St. John's; OU's 69 to 48 win over Creighton and Tech's 61 to 49 win over Arizona State appear to be the most impressive this weekend.

Baylor's Tuesday matchup on ESPN2 against Kentucky at 5:00 PM should be the best match yet this season for the Big 12.
