"New season, new season for us, new season for Nebraska," said Missouri head coach Mike Anderson.

The reigning Big 12 tournament champion Tigers missed out on a first-round bye on Saturday with a crushing defeat by Kansas University at the Mizzou Arena. Now, the Tigers must accomplish something considered tough to do in conference tourney play, win four games in four days.

"I think it's one at a time," said Anderson. "I think our depth is going to be important. You go four days, you're going to have some guys dragging."

Nebraska head coach Doc Sadler isn''t buying that.

"All of that sounds good, but we've got to play good," said Sadler.

Big 12 all-conference honorable mention selection Kimmie English leads the Tigers in scoring at 14 points a game. Senior Keith Ramsey is leading the undersized Tigers with nearly six rebounds per game.

Ryan Anderson leads the Cornhuskers with 11 points, five rebounds per game.

The "Fastest 40 Minutes" of basketball has seen better days on the offensive end. The Tigers shot 35 percent against Kansas. Mizzou's Anderson says something has to change to win.

'We need to have some shots fall for us and have a chance to win some games," said Anderson.
