No. 25 Kansas bounced back from last week's loss to North Carolina with a 77-46 rout of visiting Texas A&M-Corpus Christi on Tuesday night, doing so without star freshman Darryn Peterson, who was a surprise scratch.
Jayhawks coach Bill Self said after the game that Peterson, the nation's No. 1 recruit, didn't play due to a tight hamstring.
"We didn't anticipate this but at the end of the practice (this morning), he said it was tight. So I told him no reason to go," Self told reporters in Lawrence.
