LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) — Hunter Dickinson had 13 points and 16 rebounds, Kevin McCullar Jr. and KJ Adams had 17 points each and No. 2 Kansas beat rival Missouri 73-64 on Saturday.

The Jayhawks closed out the first half on a 14-0 run started by a Elmarko Jackson's 3-pointer to turn a 2-point deficit into a 41-29 halftime lead.

McCullar Jr. had 14 points and six rebounds in the first half.

Sean East II led Missouri with 21 points and Nick Honor scored 17, but the Tigers were without one of their guards, Caleb Grill. Grill injured his non-shooting wrist last Sunday and is expected to miss 5-7 weeks. He averages 8.4 points and nearly six rebounds per game.

Missouri kept it close in the second half outscoring Kansas 35-32, but it wasn’t enough to pull off an upset of their border foe and former Big 12 rival.

Kansas dominated in the paint scoring 42 points down low, but were careless with the ball and committed 16 turnovers, which kept Missouri in the game in the first half.

The Jayhawks, who improved to 9-1, shot 25 of 56 while Missouri went 24 for 58 from the floor and fell to 7-3.

Prior to the game, Thomas Robinson had his No. 0 jersey retired. He led the Jayhawks to the NCAA title game in 2012 and was named a Consensus All-America First Team that same year.

Missouri: After jumping out a quick lead, they went cold to end the first half and never bounced back.

Kansas: Had a slow start, but their defense locked down in the final few minutes of the first half and never looked back after that. They have their first true road game in their next contest.

Kansas: Travels to Indiana next Saturday.

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Cam Carter scored 21 points, 19 in the first half, and Arthur Kaluma added a double-double, leading Kansas State to a 75-60 victory over LSU on Saturday.

LSU outshot Kansas State 59%-52% in the first half but trailed 42-34 at the break. Tylor Perry and Kaluma opened the second half with 3-pointers for K-State to keep the pressure on LSU. Later, an 8-0 run by the Wildcats pushed the lead to 56-39 near the 14-minute mark.

LSU fought back and an 11-0 run got the Tigers within three points near the 10-minute mark. At that point, the teams that shot better than 50% in the first half both went ice cold. In the next eight minutes, K-State made three baskets and LSU one, leaving the Wildcats with a 67-57 lead with two minutes to go. K-State outscored LSU 13-3 over those final two minutes, including the final six points of the game.

Kaluma had 17 points and 11 rebounds for the Wildcats (8-2). Perry had 14 points and six assists, and Will McNair Jr. scored 13 points. Carter had eight rebounds.

Jordan Wright scored 19 points and Jalen Reed added 12 for LSU (5-4).

The game was LSU's first nonconference homecourt matchup against a Power Six team since December 2015. Earlier this season, the Tigers played at Syracuse and vs. Wake Forest at a neutral site.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Kansas City Chiefs will be without four of their starters, including running back Isiah Pacheco and left tackle Donovan Smith on offense, when they play the Buffalo Bills on Sunday.

The Chiefs also will be without linebacker Drue Tranquill and safety Bryan Cook, Chiefs coach Andy Reid said Friday.

Pacheco, who had offseason shoulder surgery, bruised the same shoulder and missed the entire week of practice. The league's fifth-leading rusher was coming off a big game, running 18 times for 110 yards and a score in a 27-19 loss to Green Bay.

Former first-round pick Clyde Edwards-Helaire, who has largely fallen out of favor in the Kansas City offense over the past two years, will start at running back against Buffalo. Jerick McKinnon will be back from a groin injury and back him up while Deneric Prince is expected to be elevated from the practice squad to provide additional depth.

“(Edwards-Helaire) has been a really good mentor and leader in the room; it starts there. Then when he gets on the field, is given opportunities, he makes the most of it," Chiefs offensive coordinator Matt Nagy said this week. "The running back position gets hit quite a bit, so if you have an injury or you need a next-man-up, you want to have a guy like Clyde ready.”

Smith hurt this neck against the Packers last Sunday. Rookie lineman Wanya Morris will continue as his replacement.

“The guys that have been stepping in have played,” Reid said. “That’s the positive part of it. It’s not new territory for them.”

The Chiefs expected to be without Cook, who severely sprained his ankle against the Packers, and Tranquill, who was placed in the concussion protocol. Mike Edwards and Chamarri Conner are next up at safety, and Kansas City hopes it can activate starting linebacker Nick Bolton off injured reserve after he logged a full week of practice.

Bolton has been out since fracturing his wrist against the Chargers on Oct. 22. Tranquill had been taking his place.

“(Bolton) boosts me. I mean that. He's an energy giver,” Chiefs defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo said. “I know the guys feel that in the huddle. ... Everybody knows what he's about, what he brings and how he communicates. You'd have to ask him a little bit more exactly — he knows where he's at with (his injury). We trust the trainers and Nick on that.”

By STEPHEN HAWKINS AP Sports Writer

Oklahoma State running back Ollie Gordon II is The Associated Press Big 12 offensive player of the year and touchdown-scoring, 362-pound Texas tackle T'Vondre Sweat is the league's top defensive player.

Third-year Texas coach Steve Sarkisian was voted the league's top coach after the third-ranked Longhorns (12-1) won the conference title and made the four-team College Football Playoff in their final Big 12 season before moving with Oklahoma to the Southeastern Conference next year.

Texas junior receiver Adonai Mitchell, a transfer from Georgia, is the Big 12 newcomer of the year.

Texas has six first-team selections on the AP All-Big 12 team revealed Friday, as determined by the votes from a panel of 23 sports writers and sportscasters who regularly cover the league that grew from 10 to 14 teams this season. It will be 16 next year with the additions of current Pac-12 teams Arizona, Arizona State, Colorado and Utah.

Gordon, the Big 12 rushing leader with 124 yards per game and 20 touchdowns, was the only unanimous first-team pick on offense. The sophomore had only 109 yards rushing total in the Cowboys’ three non-conference games, but averaged 163 yards per game in nine regular-season Big 12 games. He was the nation’s leading rusher before being held to 34 yards on 13 carries in the Big 12 championship game that Texas won 49-21.

Sweat, who had a 2-yard TD catch in that title game after lining up as a tight end, has 42 tackles, eight tackles for loss, two sacks and seven quarterback hurries this season.

Oklahoma's four first-team picks include quarterback Dillon Gabriel, the former UCF transfer who has now gone back into the transfer portal after two seasons with the Sooners. Oklahoma linebacker Danny Stutsman, with 99 tackles and 16 tackles for loss, joined Sweat as the only unanimous picks on the first-team defense.

Mitchell, a second-team pick, has 51 catches for 813 yards. His 10 touchdowns are tied with first-team receiver Drake Stoops from Oklahoma for the league lead.

Coyotes Return to Mabee to Wrap up 2023 on KINA

The
Buffalo Bills are visiting the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday in the
resumption of one of the AFC's best new rivalries. The teams have met
twice in the playoffs over the past few years with Kansas City
winning in the AFC title game in the 2020 season and an epic overtime
victory in the divisional round two seasons ago. Buffalo won the
previous meeting in the regular season, finally beating Patrick
Mahomes and Co. at Arrowhead Stadium in October 2022. The Bills were
off last week while the Chiefs lost in Green Bay to fall a game
behind Baltimore and Miami in the race for the AFC's best record.

BUFFALO
(6-6) at KANSAS CITY (8-4)

BETTING
LINE: Chiefs by 11 1/2 according to FanDuel Sportsbook.

AGAINST
THE SPREAD: Bills 4-8; Chiefs 7-5.

SERIES
RECORD: Bills lead 28-24-1.

LAST
MEETING: Bills beat Chiefs 24-20 on Oct. 16, 2022, in Kansas
City, Mo.

LAST
WEEK: Bills off; Chiefs lost to Packers 27-19.

TURNOVER
DIFFERENTIAL: Bills plus-1; Chiefs minus-6.

BILLS
PLAYER TO WATCH: WR Khalil Shakir is emerging as Buffalo’s No.
2 option behind Stefon Diggs. The second-year player has 17 catches
for 335 yards and a touchdown in his past five games while working in
the slot and lining up outside.

CHIEFS
PLAYER TO WATCH: TE Noah Gray had a single catch last week
against Green Bay, but it was a short-yardage throw for a touchdown.
If he can catch a couple of balls a game, perhaps Travis Kelce will
have a bit more room to work.

KEY
MATCHUP: Patrick Mahomes against Josh Allen. Sure, they aren't
exactly matching up against each other in the traditional sense, but
two of the league's best quarterbacks have played some doozies
against each other past few years. And usually, the quarterback that
has the better game has led his team to victory.

KEY
INJURIES: Chiefs SS Bryan Cook (ankle), LB Drue Tranquill
(concussion) and LT Donovan Smith (neck) are unlikely to play after
getting hurt last week in Green Bay, while RB Isiah Pacheco
(shoulder) missed practice time this week. LB Nick Bolton (wrist
surgery) could come off injured reserve. ... Bills TE Dawson Knox
(wrist surgery) and CB Kaiir Elam (ankle) returned to practice this
week, though it is unclear when they will be activated off IR.

SERIES
NOTES: The Bills have won two of the past three games in a series
that goes back to their days together in the AFL in the early 1960s,
but the Chiefs have won the games that mattered the most in recent
years. That includes a 38-24 victory in the AFC title game in the
2020 season and a 42-36 overtime victory in the divisional round two
seasons ago. That was the game in which the Chiefs needed three plays
and 13 seconds to get within range for a tying 49-yard field goal at
the end of regulation, then drove 75 yards for the winning touchdown
in overtime.

STATS
AND STUFF: The Bills are .500 or worse through 12 games for the
first time since starting 4-8 during Allen’s rookie season in 2018.
... Buffalo has scored 66 points in its two games since offensive
coordinator Ken Dorsey was fired and replaced by quarterbacks coach
Joe Brady. The Bills scored 123 points in Dorsey’s final six games.
... The Bills are 2-6 in games decided by six points or fewer,
including two overtime losses. Buffalo’s six losses have been
decided by 26 points total. ... The past 11 losses for Buffalo have
been decided by six points or fewer going back to a 41-15 loss to
Indianapolis on Nov. 21, 2021. ... Allen has committed a turnover in
each of his past eight outings (nine interceptions, two lost
fumbles). He is 4-6 this season when committing a turnover. ...
Allen’s nine TD runs are tied for his career best and his 47 TDs
rushing are one short of the NFL record for QBs held by Cam Newton.
... TE Dalton Kincaid has 56 catches for a Bills rookie record for
tight ends, and the second most by any Bills player in his rookie
season behind Sammy Watkins (65) in 2014. ... Kincaid also ranks
third in single-season catches for all Bills tight ends, trailing
only Charles Clay (57) in 2016 and Pete Metzelaars (68) in 1993. ...
Buffalo has blown a lead in the final two minutes in three of its
losses. ... PK Tyler Bass has matched a single-season career-worst by
missing five field-goal attempts, including one blocked and missing a
48-yard attempt wide right against Philadelphia. ... Mahomes and
Kelce have 51 TD connections, tied for third most between their
positions with Drew Brees and Jimmy Graham. ... Kelce needs one TD
catch to pass Jason Witten (74) for fifth most by a tight end in NFL
history. He needs three TD catches to pass Tony Gonzalez (76) for the
most in Chiefs history. ... WR Rashee Rice has five TD catches, one
shy of the Chiefs rookie record shared by four players. ... Rice has
591 yards receiving and needs 88 to pass Sylvester Morris for third
most among Kansas City rookies. ... RB Isiah Pacheco has 11 TD runs
over his first two seasons, the fifth most in Chiefs history. He also
has 1,609 yards rushing and needs 108 to pass Abner Haynes for third
most over a players' first two seasons. ... K Harrison Butker has
made 23 consecutive field goals, tying his own Kansas City record set
in 2017. He has not missed a field goal in 13 straight games, also
tied with himself in 2017 and Pete Stoyanovich in 1997 for the most
in franchise history.

In that meet, Timken single handedly won the Class “B” State Championship for Cimarron. He placed first in the 220-yard dash, the 120-yard high hurdles and the 180 low hurdles, giving Cimarron 18 points to capture the team title - two points ahead of the second-place team. Both hurdle performances were as records for the meet. The mayor of Cimarron later proclaimed May 28, 1966, “Roger Timken Day.” During his senior year, Timken recorded times of 14 seconds in the 120-yard-high hurdles, 18.4 in the 180-yard low hurdles and 20.9 in the 220-yard dash.

Friday on Sports Day (Watch)

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Bills and Chiefs are accustomed to playing each other with the NFL spotlight shining squarely upon them.

There was that AFC championship game a few of years ago, when Buffalo quarterback Josh Allen and Kansas City counterpart Patrick Mahomes went toe-to-toe for four quarters. And the divisional playoff game the following season, when Mahomes needed a mere 13 seconds to march his team into range for a tying field goal, then led the Chiefs to victory in overtime.

Even their games the past two Octobers have been must-see TV featuring two of the league's best teams.

Yet there is a different feel surrounding the Bills' return to Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday.

Buffalo is muddling along at 6-6 and outside the current playoff picture, the first time since Allen's rookie season in 2018 that the Bills were .500 or worse at this point in the season. And the Chiefs have lost three of their last five games, falling to 8-4 and suddenly looking up at Baltimore and Miami in the AFC standings.

“We understand what’s in front of us and what situation we’re in,” Allen said , “but we've got a lot of guys in this locker room that are very excited to be back, and we have a very good feeling in this locker room right now for what we need to do.”

The Bills are in their current predicament largely because of their inability to win close games. Each of their losses have been by six points or fewer, including four losses in the six games they played before getting last week off.

With Dallas and Miami still on the schedule, their path back to the playoffs won't be an easy one.

“We have to have a somewhat playoff mentality going forward,” Bills center Mitch Morse said, “and that's not going to guarantee us to win all the games. But we can't reach our goal if we don't play, work, practice, come together with a sense of urgency.”

The Chiefs have a similar sense of urgency coming off their loss last Sunday in Green Bay. They squandered control of their own destiny when it came to the No. 1 seed in the playoffs, and the AFC's lone first-round bye, with the lackluster 27-19 defeat.

“I've been on a team that was 6-4 and ended up winning the Super Bowl,” Mahomes said. “We have confidence every week that we’re going to find a way to win. Obviously, these last few weeks we’ve lost a couple, but we still have that mindset.”

Unlike the Bills, though, the Chiefs do not face anyone with a winning record the rest of the regular season.

“We can’t lose three out of four, or three out of five. It’s a critical situation,” Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones said, "especially where we’re trying to be in the next few weeks. We have to correct the errors, and we have to correct them fast.”

Bills pass rusher Von Miller is expected to play Sunday despite allegations of domestic violence made against him during their week off.

Miller turned himself in to police in a Dallas suburb after being charged in a warrant with domestic violence against the mother of his children, who is pregnant. He faces a charge of third-degree felony assault of a pregnant woman.

“No one wants their name associated with any accusation like that,” Buffalo general manager Brandon Beane said. “But things happen sometimes, and again, we have to remember people, we have to give them their fair due process.”

The Chiefs are unlikely to have linebacker Drue Tranquill (concussion), left tackle Donovan Smith (neck) and safety Bryan Cook (ankle), while running back Isiah Pacheco is nursing a bruised shoulder. But they are hopeful that linebacker Nick Bolton will be back soon from injured reserve, where he landed after wrist surgery, providing a big boost to a banged-up defense.

The Bills aren't going to give the Chiefs any sympathy when it comes to injuries. Tight end Dalton Knox has missed five games after his own wrist surgery and cornerback Kaiir Elam four to an ankle injury, but both resumed practicing this week, raising hopes they will soon come off IR. Meanwhile, cornerback Dane Jackson cleared the concussion protocol and safety Taylor Rapp was back at practice after missing a game with a neck injury.

Allen and Mahomes have been so good for so long that it becomes a big storyline whenever things go awry. In both of their cases, turnovers have been a problem this season.

Allen has committed at least one in eight straight games — nine interceptions, two lost fumbles — while Mahomes has thrown 10 picks and is on pace to set a career high.

The Bills have scored 66 points in their two games since offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey was fired and quarterbacks coach Joe Brady took over; they had scored 123 in Dorsey's final six games total. But that doesn't mean the Chiefs are writing off everything that Buffalo did over its first 10 games this season.

“There's some differences,” Chiefs coach Andy Reid said, "but there’s also some of the same things. They didn’t completely can the offense there. I think we’ll have a good feel for what they do.”

Bills and Chiefs to meet at Arrowhead with both teams feeling desperate for a win

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Kansas State forward Nae'Qwan Tomlin was dismissed from the team late Wednesday, more than a month after his arrest for disorderly conduct, triggering a wave of criticism aimed at the school administration from some fans.

Tomlin averaged 10.4 points in 36 games last season, and was a big part of the Wildcats' surprise run to the Elite Eight of the NCAA Tournament. He considered turning pro after the season but ultimately decided to return to the program.

He was arrested following a bar fight in October, and Kansas State coach Jerome Tang immediately suspended him “for not living up to the expectations of our players.” But as the season progressed, many Kansas State fans were antsy for Tomlin's return to the team, even chanting his name during an overtime win against Villanova this week.

As some fans began calling and emailing administrators, including Kansas State president Richard Linton, athletic director Gene Taylor finally issued a statement that said Tomlin “will no longer be able to continue with the K-State men's basketball team."

“This decision was not made lightly by me,” he said, "but it is the decision warranted by the circumstances that brought it to bear.”

Taylor said he had been “monitoring the situation” along with Tang but declined to share any specifics of the case, citing federal privacy laws. That includes whether there were factors beyond the initial bar fight that led to his decision.

Earlier in the day, Tomlin posted on Instagram the lyrics from a song that said: “I want to be free, free, free.” The 6-foot-10 forward is scheduled to graduate at the semester, and because he has yet to play for the Wildcats this season, Tomlin could transfer to another school and play for the remainder of the season.

“Allowing for space and time is critical,” Taylor said, "but in today’s digital age, that unfortunately can lead to the spread of rumors and misinformation — and in this case, much of the information on social media is incorrect.
