KU cracks 90, beats Texas Tech.
Byline: Rick Plumlee
LAWRENCE, Kan. _ Kansas turned on an offensive spigot that hasn't been seen in these parts since, well, that other coach moved on to North Carolina.
There were floating jumpers and stickbacks galore from Wayne Simien. Fastbreak after fastbreak.
Freshmen J.R. Giddens and David Padgett combining for 34 points. And three-pointers were even dropping in for the Jayhawks.
It left Texas Tech drowning in a 96-77 loss Saturday as KU kept a piece of the Big 12 lead while cracking 90 points for the first time since the season opener.
"I felt we could score at any time," Simien said after scoring 22 points and pulling in a career-high 17 rebounds. "It was the first time I've felt like that this year."
Even more remarkable considering it came against a team coached by Bob Knight, noted for the defensive tenacity of his teams over the past 38 years as much as his rages.
