He also said Peterson is "making progress" and "we think we'll get him back sooner rather than later."

Self said on postgame radio he's "hopefully we have him (Peterson in Vegas) but I'm not banking on it. We've got to go out there and play better without him if we don't have him" also "until he's healthy 100 % and he's not feeling pain we're not going to put him out there."

KU 4 of 21 from 3; Duke was only 7 of 26. KU outscored 11-2 to close the game after cutting it to 3.

It was 67-64 Duke at 4:59. 9-0 run since then ends it.

Flory four fouls

KU down by five with 7:28 left. White 18 pts; Flory 12. KU 3 of 15 from 3.

Tre White playing well again with 12 pts and four rebounds and two assists. Fouls starting to pile up a bit for KU. The PG position having a tough nite for KU. It's 30-30 with 3:48 left in first.

Flory two fouls with 6:40 left in first; KU now without Peterson and Flory. Not good. ... Council is 1-for-7 shooting, some horrid shots. Rest of team is 10 of 16

Dawson with a beautiful lob to Bidunga for slam and 24-18 lead. Excellent decision by Dawson to not take it himself and maybe charge. KU defense came to play. 8:23 left in the first.

KU's six-point lead down to three at 20-17 at 11:14.

A fired up KU team off to a 14-10 start at first TV time out. I'd keep this starting five in another segment before subbing.

Legit question: W/out Peterson what does KU have to do to be in the game tonight? Analysts to be discussing this soon nuff, how bout u? I say: Hold Boozer to 20-25 pts, hope Duke has off shooting night; many Jayhawks step up and have HUGE nights including Tiller, Marko n Rosario.

KJ Adams' defense kept Cooper Flagg in check last season in KU's victory over Duke in Vegas. Can Bidunga avoid early foul trouble and do decent job on Boozer? Will Tre White be able to guard him and not pick up fouls? Is Tiller prepared for such a matchup?

KU plays Duke tonight w/out DP (yikes) ... open with Notre Dame in the Players Era Monday then Syracuse Tuesday. No gimmes if he is out. I been researching N.D. and Irish got an elite rebounder (Towt) and big time scorer (Burton). Heard Syracuse is improved.

Self confirms Peterson is out tonight and "making improvement with his hamstring strain. Will be reevaluated at end of the week."

@BrotherRiceFB @SCNFBplayers @CycloneFB TOUCHDOWN @BrotherRiceFB Jameson Davis with fantastic run down the home sideline, shook two tacklers for a 36-yard score. XP good 28-9 Brother Rice. 10:40 3Q

KU's 10 point lead down to 3 in a matter of two possessions: 4 pt play and a 3. Princeton appears to be in it today for the long haul. Anybody's game with 17:54 left. We shall see what happens.

Steals and dunks by Bidunga and Council tie it at 18. KU has to hope that wakes up the Jayhawks who are 6 of 16 shooting and have trailed by as many as 5 to Princeton

Princeton has already hit four 3s and leads 14-12. Walk on Evers has entered the game. Good thing Rosario has made 2 3's or this could already be a significant deficit.

KU 2 of 8 and trails 6-5 at 15:25 time out. Council is 0-3. Princeton has hit 2 threes in the first 4 1/2 minutes.
