Last Night in College Basketball: A Healthy Darryn Peterson Led Kansas Past TTU

Men's college basketball, women's college basketball – there's no shortage of college ball, every night.

Don't worry, we're here to help you figure out what you missed but shouldn't have. Here are all the best moments from last night in college basketball.

There was some concern over another round of Darryn Peterson missing time with a leg injury, this time from cramps that possibly resulted from his tweaked ankle that kept him out of practices before Kansas’ showdown with BYU over the weekend. With the No. 11 Jayhawks facing No. 13 Texas Tech on the road on Monday, the quick turnaround time for Peterson — a freshman guard who is likely to be one of the top-3 picks in the NBA Draft this spring, but who had played in just 11 games this season due to a variety of leg maladies — was a genuine worry. He had to exit against the Cougars early, barely playing in the second half, and logged just 20 minutes on the day — would a similar fate befall him against the Red Raiders?

The concern was merited, but it wasn’t necessary last night, at least. Peterson wasn’t as explosive as he had been against BYU, and his shot was a little off, too, but he scored 19 points in 35 minutes — that second number is the most important one, given how his season has gone to this point. It took 14 shots and a 6-for-8 showing from the line to get those 19 points, but they all ended up mattering in a 64-61 win over Texas Tech.

Peterson also hit a 23-foot 3-pointer with 1:01 left in the game to tie things up at 61, and then a second 3 about half-a-minute later to give the Jayhawks the lead — he was 3-for-7 from deep on the night, but certainly picked the right time to start hitting them.

Despite Texas Tech hitting 12 3-pointers, it shot just 32% overall
