The last time Kansas pulled out a victory, it was in a thrilling fashion at home against Nebraska on Feb. 17. If the Jayhawks want to get a win in the Big 12 Tournament they'll have to play even better than they did in that game. In Kansas' loss in Lincoln, Neb., hit 30-of-32 free throws. Then in Lawrence the Cornhuskers were just 17-for-34. Nebraska won't shoot that bad from the free-throw line, so Kansas must keep them from getting there in order to have a chance.

McCray
Sophomore McCray was the hero the last time these teams squared off and she'll be eager to play that role again.
sophomore guard 14.7 ppg, 7.0 rpg
McCray's concern tonight needs to
she allowed Kansas State's guard Shalee Lehning to score a career high 29 points. The Jayhawks need her athleticism out on the court but she can't be a liability for them defensively or she'll move right back to the bench.
Taylor McIntosh 5-foot-11
Nebraska (20-10, 9-7)
Kelsey Griffin, 6-foot-2 junior
forward 14.9 ppq, 7.2 rpg
In two previous meetings with Kansas, Griffin proved she was nearly unstoppable when she had
room to put the ball on the floor. The Jayhawks have responded by fouling the All-Big 12 selection
every reason to step her game up even more. She will be looking to lead her team to a deep run in the Big 12 Tournament. If both Page and Griffin are on their offensive games, Kansas could be in for serious foul trouble.

ATAGLANCI
Coach Connie Yori's team has all but sewn up a spot in the NCAA Tournament win or lose against the Jayhawks. Though Kansas last win came against Nebraska, it hasn't won since and the Huskers will be keen to avenge that loss. It's all about battling for seeding now for Yori and the Cornhuskers, and the Jayhawks could be their first victim.
QUESTION MARK
Can Nebraska convert fouls

Everyone gets angry or annoyed at his or her roommate at one point or another.
They might snore excessively, steal food or listen to unappealing music while others are trying to sleep. Yet these examples pale in comparison to what some KU students have encountered with their roommates.
DIRTY DISHES
