SPORTS UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Missouri finishes season on perfect note
By Doug Tucker
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Teams win most of the time because they are good. They win once in a while because they're lucky.
During the 1993-94 Big Eight season, Missouri was both good and lucky, just at the right times and sometimes all at once. And that made everything perfect.
How fitting this remarkable campaign, punctuated by great plays and clutch players and unequaled in the Big Eight for almost 25 years, should culminate with some of the most heart-stopping moments any fan in an snort will ever behold.
Eric Piatkowski's 25-footer from
the right wing — for just a few thin shavings of a second — dipped into the rim as the buzzer went off. Final score Nebraska 81, Missouri 80. Goodbye perfect Big Eight season, farewell place in history, curse the luck.
But as throats throughout the Hearnes Center gulped in tortured unison, the ball spun back up the rim — up, up, and out.
Frenzy erupts at the final score of Missouri 80, Nebraska 78, in one of the most stirring finishes to any perfect conference season.
Missouri guard Melvin Booker seemed to wonder if divine intervention hadn't taken a hand.
"I didn't see it go up," said Booker.
"But when I turned to look it was in
the basket. Somebody tipped it out. I don't know who. But I want to thank him for doing that."
Now the 12th-ranked Tigers (24-2 overall, 14-0 Big Eight) will be the No. 1 seed and open the Big Eight Tournament at 12:10 p.m. Friday in Kansas City against No. 8 seed Colorado (10-16, 2-12), which lost its regular season finale Saturday 83-68 to No. 21 Oklahoma State.
The Cowboys survived a record-breaking Donnie Boyce assault before subduing Colorado. As the No. 2 seed, Oklahoma State (21-8, 10-4) will meet Iowa State (14-12, 4-10) in the first evening session Friday in Kansas City's Kemper Arena.

son, Fred Holberg scored 27 points and Julius Michalik added 21 as Iowa State kept its postseason tournament hopes alive with an 86-60 victory over Kansas State.
In the other game yesterday, No. 13 Kansas (24-6, 9-5) came from behind to beat Oklahoma 84-81 in Norman.
The Jawhawks, who lost at home to Kansas State during the season, will meet the Wildcats (17-11, 4-10) in the other evening session Friday night. In the second day contest in the first round of the tournament, Nebraska (17-9, 7-7) will meet Oklahoma (15-11, 6-8).
A victory over Missouri, now a very possible No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament, might have assured Nebraska an NCAA bid.
"My kids played their hearts out, and you guys know the rest," Nebraska coach Danny Nee said.
Missouri's season is even more remarkable considering these same seniors finished seventh just one year ago.
"If I could say it humorously, and you all could print it humorously, the humorous side of this thing is that we beat an awful lot of teams this year in a weak league," Stewart said, planting his tongue in his cheek. "For some reason the league's down. A lot of players were hurt. And we always got the benefit of great officiating."
Boyce scored a career-high 46 points — including 20 straight during one stretch and 31 of the Buffaloes' 39 in the second half.
He set a Big Eight record by scoring two-thirds of his team's points and smashed school records with 20 straight points, 31 second-half points and seven 3-pointers.
"I just felt real loose, and I just felt like every shot I shot was going in or had a chance to go in," said Boyce.
Iowa State never trailed and led by as many as 30 points. Kansas State shot only 34 percent and got just six points from Askia Jones, who was averaging 21.9.
