LAWRENCE, Kan. -- The need to work the basketball inside is a product of the offense Kansas Jayhawks coach Bill Self wants to run and his preference to attack inside-out in half-court sets.Primary threats this season, however, dictate the Jayhawks be more proficient at running the floor and shooting from 3-point range. Often, Self employs a four-guard attack.Still, he values the importance of working the ball inside with No. 3 Kansas off to an 8-1 start and carrying an eight-game win streak entering a home game Saturday against Nebraska (5-4).Its to help our team, Self said. I mean, were not going to score consistently shooting 50 percent from 3 all the time. Youve got to be able to throw the ball inside and get fouled, or score on the block some. You have to be able to do that. So we need to feed those guys more often, get them more touches.Those guys, the Kansas big men, have been inconsistent factoring into team scoring.Sophomore forward Carlton Bragg is the leader among the bigs with a 7.8-point average that rank sixth among the Jayhawks scorers. Senior forward Landen Lucas averages the most minutes (17.4), but has been slowed by an ailing foot.Freshman center Udoka Azubuike has been the lone big to start in the lineup Self used the last four games. He averages 4.8 points and 4.7 boards.Each of those players, Self maintains, can gain more confidence if they are simply incorporated into the offense.They dont need to look to score if theyre getting the ball more, Self said. They can wait and have better timing and not force the issue. The more touches you get, the less you feel inclined that you have to score.With Kansas averaging 87.8 points and shooting 42.9 percent from 3-point range, marks that rank 12th and ninth nationally, the guards are capable of shouldering the scoring load.In addition, they can initiate transition as rebounders, helping the Jayhawks to a 119-47 advantage in fast-break points.Theres going to be a game where were not making shots, said junior guard Devonte Graham, and well really find out what kind of team we are and if we can get stops and defend. Were just going to stay aggressive, keep passing how weve been passing it and keep shooting.The meeting against Nebraska renews a series that began in 1900, but was last staged in 2011, the Huskers final season in the Big 12. The programs were also league rivals in the Big Six, Big Seven and Big Eight. Kansas has won the last 17 meetings and was 31-3 against Nebraska as members of the Big 12.Nebraska is coming off a 77-62 homecourt defeat against No. 10 Creighton. The Huskers trailed 18-4 after scoring on just two of their first 15 possessions, then rallied within two early in the first half before Creighton ran away.If this doesnt hurt you, nothing does, Nebraska coach Tim Miles said after the in-state loss dropped him to 68-71 in his fifth season.Weve got to teach them how to win. I think its watching tape and meeting with guys and all that fun stuff, and just continually cultivating a relationship of trust and understanding of what good basketball looks like and how we have to do it against top-level competition.The visit to Kansas represents another top-level game. The matchup will be the sixth in 16 days for the Huskers against opponents ranked in the top 51 of the current RPI.Senior guard Tai Webster leads the Huskers with a 17.2-point average, while sophomore guard Glynn Watson chips in 13.2. Sophomore forward Ed Morrow averages 10.1 points and a team-high 8.1 rebounds. Asics Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 Online Mens/Womens Gold/Red THL7C2-9422 .
