BIG 12 BASKETBALL
Stand-out players get noticed in Big 12 conference play
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — At a time of year when the best players are beginning to separate themselves from the rest of the pack, some unfamiliar faces are making big noise in the Big 12.
Drawing rave notices at Colorado is sophomore Richard Roby. After averaging 16 points as a freshman, Roby has been the Buffaloes' leading scorer during a five-game winning streak, averaging almost 26 points in a span that has lifted Colorado to
Kansas State junior Cartier Martin is also drawing accolades. Martin had 24 points last week against Colorado, the fourth time in the last five games he has led the Wildcats in scoring.
within half a game of Texas in the conference race.
At Texas A&M, junior guard Acie Law has scored in double digits in all but one game this season. He has 127 points in his last six games.
Taking his game to an even higher level is Texas guard Daniel Gibson. Already a scorer and play-maker deluxe, Gibson has become one of the Big 12's top perimeter defenders.

Detroit renovates its look for Super Bowl XL
DETROIT — Before the Super Bowl kickoff this weekend, private planes will land here, limousines will clog the streets, and lavish parties will be thrown for those with famous names or lots of money.
Much of the rest of Detroit, though, is a landscape dotted with burned-out buildings, where liquor stores abound but supermarkets are hard to come by, and where drugs, violence and unemployment are everyday realities.
Officials in the nation's poorest big city see hosting the game as a huge boost. They say it will be a catalyst for further development and provide a chance to improve Detroit's gritty reputation. They hope visitors will take note of new restaurants, clubs and lofts downtown. To make sure the city makes a good impression, dilapidated buildings have been torn down, roads repaired and landmarks renovated.
