After avenging an early season Big
Eight Conference loss to Iowa State
with a 66-65 victory Wednesday night,
the Nebraska men's basketball team
will attempt to do the same to Kansas
State.
Kansas State defeated the Corn
huskejs 114-82 in Manhattan, Kan., to
open the Big Eight season.
The Wildcats are 16-6 overall and 6-3
in the Big Eight. Those figures may
surprise some people because Kansas
State was 16-14 and 4-10 last season,
but Nebraska coach Danny Nee isn't
surprised at all.
"In the pre-season, the early part of
the year, when people asked me about
K-State I felt that they were the sleeper,"
Nee said. "I think it's a fact now."
Kansas State's forward Norris Cole
man, a sophomore, leads the team in
scoring and rebounding. Coleman
missed the Wildcats' pre-conference
games becuase of deficient high-school

grades, but since returning to action he
has averaged 23.7 points and 10
rebounds per game.
Three Kansas State starters are
junior-college transfers, and Nee cre
dited their quick adjustment to Big
Eight basketball to first-year Kansas
State coach Lon Kruger.
"They have been a very consistent
team, a very balanced team, and out of
all the new coaches it looks like Lonny
Kruger made the quickest and easiest
adjustment," Nee said. "He's blended
the junior-college players with the
veterans down there to come up with
great chemistry, good defense and all
the ingredients of a winner."
Moberly, Mo., Junior College pro
duced two of the transfers, forward
Mitch Richmond and center Charles
Bledsoe.
Richmond, a first-team Junior Col
lege All-American last season, is second
in scoring with 17.6 points a game.
Bledsoe is averaging nine points and
nearly six rebounds a game.
