Underclassmen to watch in the Big 12 - Big 12 Blog - ESPN
Kansas LB Kyron Watson: It’s easy to trust the guy Ben Heeney has selected as his successor.

The Day After: Overcoming OU | Tale of the Tait | KUsports.com
Had Oklahoma, which confirmed all of the things I already liked about them (mental and physical toughness, great guard play, well coached) had been able to erase that 19-point halftime deficit and walk out of there with a victory, it would've been one of the better wins in school history. Instead, KU rose a level above and the home crowd took the Jayhawks the rest of the way to a huge conference victory that may very well have re-established KU as the team to beat in the Big 12.
Oubre, Jayhawks make noise from long range | KUsports.com
“At the beginning of the game, we had in the back of our mind we went to Ames and didn’t come out as successful as we wanted to,” Oubre said of Saturday’s 86-81 loss at Iowa State in which KU hit nine of 23 threes. “So we wanted to come out from the jump and do things better than we did at Iowa State.”
Kansas Basketball: Freshmen Oubre, Alexander growing up
One of the more pressing issues of the Jayhawks’ season thus far has been the utilization and performance of McDonald’s All-Americans Kelly Oubre Jr. and Cliff Alexander. Pundits and fans alike believe that if Bill Self can get these two uber-talented freshmen to play up to their lofty expectations, then the Jayhawks have another Big 12 Championship and Final Four caliber team on their hands.

The Big 12 is proving to be fun and exhausting for all coaches involved - CBSSports.com
Self has coached 11 years at KU, won at least a share of the Big 12's past 10 titles and never lost more than four league games. And yet, by his estimation, in this particular season, he -- or anybody else, for that matter -- might be able to win the Big 12 even with five league losses, which is a testament to the quality and depth of the conference.

LOOK: All-22 film shows how much space Morgan Burnett had to run - CBSSports.com
While the television angle shows that Burnett had at least a little bit of room to run, the All-22 shows us just how much. Via ESPN's Rob Demovsky, here's a shot of the open field in front of Burnett, as well as Julius Peppers telling him to go down. (Mr Ed says: The Packers did NOT lose because Morgan Burnett took a knee after picking off Russell Wilson. They had a 12-point lead with only 5 mins to go at that point (and now the ball). The blame lies elsewhere.)
