"We know it will be a big time test," Williams said after Wednesday's game. "They've got some revenge on their minds possibly and they are playing very well and we're not playing as well. We took a step forward tonight. It will have to be our best game of the year."
Michael Lee, sophomore guard, tries to get past Central Missouri State junior guard James Collins. When asked about returning to his home state of Oregon for the Jayhawks next game, Lee said, "They'll appreciate us being home."
Tomorrow's game, which will be played at the Rose Garden, is reportedly sold out. A standingroom only crowd would create the largest crowd in the history of the state to see a college basketball game.

Franchione — 25-11 at TCU from 1998-2000 and 17-8 in two years at Alabama had been noncommittal on his plans in recent weeks.
Franchione, a native of Girard and a graduate and former coach at Pittsburg State, leaves Alabama less than a year after the school was hit this year with harsh NCAA sanctions. He replaces R.C. Slocum, who was fired Monday after the Aggies' 50-20 loss to Texas closed out a 6-6 season.

lison said, "She looked good in it."
"I was more worried about his opinion than my own father's opinion of the calendar," O'Connor said of Williams. "It's almost more of a relief now that he knows and has talked to me about it, because I was worried how he was going to react to it."
O'Connor said she was nervous that the calendar photos might strain her working relationship with coach Roy Williams. But he didn't even notice until questioned about O'Connor after a press conference.
