Big 12 teams struggle in exhibitions

The equation seems so easy;
exhibition game equals easy win.
Apparently some of the teams in the Big 12 Conference don't come equipped with math majors because their equations haven't added up. Four conference teams lost exhibition games during the weekend and are off to shaky starts, while a few of the others squeaked out wins. Kansas, Missouri, Baylor and Colorado all won in impressive fashion in their exhibitions.
Two of those teams that lost Kansas State and Nebraska, were ranked in the bottom four in the conference by the coaches, but Oklahoma and Oklahoma State were both top six conference selections, thus causing some early concern about the Big 12's status as a powerful basketball conference.
No. 4 Kansas (2-0) got its regular
season under way last week by capturing the Coaches vs. Cancer IKON Classic title in New York, defeating now No. 14 UCLA and new No. 24 St. John's.
BIG 12 NORTH
Kansas was led by tournament MVP senior forward Kenny Gregory's 41 points in the two games. Sophomore forward Drew Gooden also earned all-tournament team status.
Missouri is still in its exhibition season but played like a well-seasoned veteran squad in routing Team Fokus 110-79 on Sunday. Sophomore forward Kareem Rush led the Tigers with 23 points and 13 rebounds.
Coach Quin Snyder said that he was disappointed with his team but that it finally was playing to its potential.
"We've been practicing for a month, and I have not felt good the other times we've put on a uniform," Snyder said.
Colorado was also on the winning circuit. The Buffaloes sent the Basketball Travelers packing 99-75 and then defeated the EA
Sports All-Stars 93-86 last weekend.
- Iowa State defeated Global Sports 85-72 in an exhibition victory. Sophomore guard Brandon Hawkins made his first career start and led the Cyclones with 12 points and six assists.
The new coaches in the north division both started their careers in a fashion both schools are accustomed to — losing.
Jim Woolridge's Kansas State Wildcats lost to Global Sports 78-73 in overtime. Nebraska coach Barry Collier found a similar result against the same team, losing 76-62. The Cornhuskers trailed 39-24 at halftime and never recovered.
BIG 12 SOUTH
Junior forward Chris Owens led the Longhorns with 28 points and eight rebounds, and junior guard
Texas opened its regular season at the Preseason NIT tournament by beating Navy 79-65.
and preseason conference newcomer of the year Maurice Evans scored 13 points in his Texas debut.
Texas A&M squeaked past Australia's Team Ezybonds 79-77 last week, and Baylor beat the same team 93-63. Texas A&M sophomore guard Bernard King drained a jump shot from the free throw line with 2.6 seconds remaining, capping the victory.
Coach Melvin Watkins said he wasn't satisfied with his team's performance.
"Lately, practice has not been as good but that has been partly due to all of the injuries," Watkins said. "There were some good things out there."
Both Oklahoma and Oklahoma State struggled out of the gates and lost. The Sooners were defeated by Global Sports 80-78, marking their first exhibition loss since a 102-74 loss to the Soviet Union in 1986.
Oklahoma State was downed 96-95 by Athletes First after a furious rally fell short. It was the Cowboys' first exhibition loss since 1988.
