Kansas freshman Darryn Peterson scored 19 points, including two 3-pointers in the final 1:20 for his only field goals of the second half, and the 11th-ranked Jayhawks overcame a late nine-point deficit to beat No. 13 Texas Tech 64-61. Peterson, who played a season-high 35 minutes, hit a 3 from the right corner with 1:20 left to tie the game at 61. His next one, with 44 seconds remaining, put the Jayhawks ahead to stay in their sixth consecutive win. The Red Raiders, playing without starting point guard Christian Anderson, had a 59-50 lead with 6:05 to go but made only one of their last 12 shots while Kansas closed on a 14-2 run. Melvin Council Jr. had 16 points and Flory Bidunga scored 14 for the Jayhawks.
