WOMEN'S RIVALRY Jayhawks take on Tigers
Can Kansas get to the free-throw line more than its opponent?
Listen to 'The Give'n Go'women's basketball podcast on Kansan.com
Kansas did everything right in the first half Wednesday night. Then Texas Tech countered with a motivated offense and pressure defense, and Kansas folded like an accordion. The most alarming thing about the loss was that the Jayhawks completely abandoned getting the ball down to center Krysten Boogaard, who was a big reason they had a lead to begin with. The freshman was 6-for-10 from the field in the first half and just 2-of-2 in the second. Texas Tech did turn up the inside pressure, but there's no excuse for getting the team's hot hand just two shots down the stretch.
The Jayhawks are shooting a solid 77 percent from the charity stripe, compared to just 50 and 68 percent out of the Cornhuskers and Lady Raiders. At this point trips to the line really are free points for Kansas, but its not playing aggressive enough to earn more fouls and thus more free throws.
QUESTION MARK
KANSAS AT MISSOURI, 1:30 p.m. Sunday, Mizzou Arena, Columbia, Mo.
Boogaard
Kansas (15-10,4-8)
Krysten Boogaard, 6-foot-5 freshman center
9.8 ppg, 5.6 rpg
Boogaard had scored a total of seven points in her first three Big 12 games before exploding for 17 against Missouri in the first matchup. She has performed well in every game since then. As long as Boogaard avoids foul trouble, a career high 25 points is definitely attainable – provided her teammates don't stop passing her the ball.
McCray
Danielle McCray, 5-foot-11 sophomore guard
14.6 pq. 7.3
If she can ever shoot at or above 50 percent from the field in a conference game, McCray will become truly deadly. She's a double-double threat every time she steps on the court, but she's shooting as low as 30 percent in some games. A strong start from Boogaard opens up some looks for McCray, and she has to hit those with more consistency for Kansas to win on the road. McCray's also an 80 percent shooter from the free-throw line and a more aggressive mentality would get her some confidence and easy points at the line.
Missouri (8-17,1-11)
Alysia Hollins 5-foot-11 Junior guard
16.1 p口 36% PT
Despite their miserable season, Hollins is a definite bright spot for the Tigers. Hollins is fifth in the conference in scoring, even though Missouri is last in the Big 12 in scoring offense at 59.5 point per game. During Missouri's loss to Kansas earlier in the year, Hollins was held in check, scoring 14 points on 6-17 shooting. At home it should be a different story, and if she can find room behind the arc, the Jayhawks could be in trouble.
-Taylor Bern
Hollins
Jessra Johnson 6-foot-1 sophomore forward
3. 3 ppg, 7.6 ppg It's hard to understand the Tiger's struggles considering the production they receive from Hollins and Johnson. In Missouri's recent narrow defeats to Oklahoma and Nebraska, Johnson averaged 15 points and almost seven rebounds. Unfortunately the Tigers are last in the Big 12 in nearly every rebounding category. To defeat Kansas, Missouri has to put in an inspired effort on the boards.
Johnson
There isn't much to say about the Tigers' Big 12 season. They've lost nine straight games. The average margin of victory by Big 12 opponents is almost 15 points per game and includes losses by 35 and 30 points to Oklahoma State and Texas. Missouri already lost to Kansas once, and at this point they are playing for pride and to prevent a sweep in the Border Showdown.

QUESTION MARK
Will the Tigers win again this season?
This game could be their last legitimate chance at victory this season. Kansas hasn't yet won on the road in conference play and a six-point win in Lawrence doesn't exactly inspire confidence. Missouri's only victory in conference was at home against Texas Tech, a team Kansas just lost to. The Tigers come out ready to play and a victory could give them something to build on for next season.
