MEN'S BASKETBALL RECAP 15
Kansas falls against Cowboys
The No.1 Kansas Jayhawks couldn't hold off James Anderson and red-hot Oklahoma State, as the Jayhawks were handed their first conference loss of the season by the final tally of 85-77.
Anderson was an unstoppable force despite playing through back spasms that started the day before the game at a Cowboys practice. He led all scorers with 27 points.
The Cowboys staked themselves a 16-point halftime lead, and only briefly let the Jayhawks within double-figures.
Oklahoma State controlled every facet of the game, outrebounding the Jayhawks 36-26 despite not having a player taller than 6-foot-8 for the entire game. Of course, it's difficult for anyone to pull down rebounds when the opponent isn't missing.
Anderson & Co. shot 60,4 percent from the floor, the highest percentage the Jayhawks have allowed in just shy of two decades. Forwards Matt Pilgrim and Marshall Moses, the only true post players in the Oklahoma State rotation, combined to shoot 12-of-12 for 26 points and 13 rebounds.

"Obviously we weren't good offensively today by any means. We couldn't make a basket when they got their lead," coach Bill Self said. "So in those times, that's when you've got to guard. And obviously our toughness level defensively today was very, very poor and that can happen in the tournament in a one-and-done deal."
