The Jayhawks will go against Kansas State Wednesday night, and the Wildcats will be one of the few teams that can match the height of the KU team, led by 6-11 Wesley.
"The defense has to make up its mind whether it wants to stop shots from the outside or the inside. Luckily, we have been hitting well enough from the outside to win," Owens said.
"I am not worried about any team, including Kansas State, using a zone defense to bottle up Wesley," KU Coach Ted Owens said last night.
Lopes, who had been unable to connect on a shot from the field in the previous Colorado game, missed his first few attempts against Iowa State. But the 6-5 guard apparently found his eye midway through the first period, and finished with 11 points.
THE JAYHAWKS, now 3-1 in the conference and 11-4 overall, hit 43 per cent of their shots from the field Saturday, while the Cyclones were connecting on 39 per cent.
"Al worked hard on shooting between the Colorado and Iowa State games, and apparently worked out the difficulty. The important thing is that he didn't lose confidence in his shooter's."
"When a boy has all the basic skills of shooting, it is usually something small that makes him have a bad night," Owens said.
Saturday afternoon, the Missouri Tigers defeated Kansas State in a locally televised game. KU downed the Tigers at Lawrence last week, but the KU-KSU game Wednesday is expected to be another bitter intra-state match which could go either way.
