BUFFALOES
Harrison, a member of the Big 12 All-Freshmen team, obviously didn't get that message a month ago, because the braggadocio spotted off again in Kansas' direction after Colorado's victory yesterday.

"I have nothing to prove against Kansas," said Harrison, who scored nine points and grabbed nine rebounds against Nebraska. "They're just another team to me. Everybody has weaknesses, theirs are just hard to see and hard to exploit. But everybody has them."
Because just six Buffaloos played more than 14 minutes in yesterday's game, Colorado, which has won just two of its last eight games, might have a hard time keeping pace with Kansas long enough to find a chink in its armor.
Reserve guard Blair Wilson was the only Buffalo bench player to get significant playing time. The sophomore, who was named to the Big 12 All- Reserve team this season, hit all four of his three point attempts and totaled a game-high 24 points in 31 minutes.
"There is no doubt Blair can shoot the ball," Colorado coach Ricardo Patton said. "He is our most impressive guard. He has been the most consistent guard this season." Moto:
Play was stopped for about 20 minutes near the end of the Texas Tech-Texas A&M contest when sportswriter Bob Hammel, who is in his late-60s and diabetic, had a seizure on press row at about 4 p.m.
A Lubbock Avalanche-Journal sportswriter sitting next to Hammel, who covered Indiana University athletics to the Bloomington Herald-Times and is a long-time confidant of Red Raiders Bobby Knight, turned his neck sharply and his face contorted before someone caught him as he fell backward and convulsed.
Hammel, who co-authored Knight's soon-to-be released book "Knight: My Story," was conscious

Knight left Kemper Arena immediately after the game to check on his "closest friend" at St. Luke's Hospital, said Pat Knight, Bobby's son and a Tech assistant coach.

the athletes who came just close," Redwine said. "Jennie Wonder was two-hundredths of a second from making it to the NCAAs. It seems like that's pretty bad, but that happens every year to someone. Hopefully that's a motivation to get better in the future."
Eisenmenger said that Monday was a nerve-wracking day, but now that she was in the meet, she wasn't too nervous. Most of the time.
"Not until right before I go to sleep and all those thoughts start going through your head," she said.
Bookman emerged this season as one of the best runners in the Big 12 conference, but he knows that the competition awaiting him at nationals will be much more difficult. Making the final would be a good performance, he said.
He said he hoped to get his time down to 20.7 seconds.
"I've been getting faster every week so I'm just hoping that I can knock some more time down," Bookman said.
Bookman said his start, which had plagued him at times this season, was getting better and that now he was concentrating on the latter portions of the race.
"I just want to make sure I run the last curve good and have a smooth transition from the curve to the straight," he said.
Russell has also been working on technique since his record throw in Ames. He said many times before big meets, his throws in practice weren't very good. This week was no exception.
"I think it might just be nerves and that. Russell said."
But having the nation's best throw by nearly seven feet provides Russell some breathing room.
“It’s in my head,” he said.
“That’s the thing coach said, the
only person that can beat right now is myself. If I go into the ring and kind of do what I have to do, then I shouldn't have a problem."
Hann and Gvozdetskiy both produced big personal bests last weekend to get into the field at nationals. Hann upped her triple jump mark from 41 feet 6 inches to 42-31 1/4 at Notre Dame last Saturday. Gvozdetskiy improved his best mark by almost five inches to 17-11 last Saturday at Nebraska.
"I credit the athletes for being in a competitive frame of mind, knowing what they wanted to achieve." Redwine said. "I also credit the staff for keeping the athletes motivated and trying to help them accomplish their goals. But it definitely starts with the athlete first because if they don't want it, the coaches can't make them want it."
