Oral Roberts Upsets No. 3 Kansas 78-71
By DOUG TUCKER 11.16.06, 4:18 AM ET



It's party time at Oral Roberts, the religion-based school in Tulsa that gave Bill Self his first job as a head coach. The lightly regarded Golden Eagles came into Lawrence as double-digit underdogs to a mighty Kansas team ranked No. 3 in the country, victorious in 165 of its last 175 home games. What they went home with Wednesday night was a surprising 78-71 victory over the Jayhawks, Self's current team.

"It may be the biggest regular-season win in school history," Oral Roberts coach Scott Sutton said. "Our trainer has been here over 30 years and said it was the highest-ranked team we've ever beat."

No doubt, the Jayhawks had a bad night. They were a miserable 11-for-21 from the foul line and spent most of the night missing easy shots and playing bad defense.

Nevertheless, led by Mid-Contintent player of the year Caleb Green and unheralded sophomore Marchello Vealy, the Golden Eagles looked, acted and played like the best team on the court.

who has crystal meth and Ted Haggard on speed dial?

On a serious note, I had a college prof who did his PhD at Kansas and is an avid fan. I think I may be dropping him an email........

5. Self Should Have Stayed At Illinois

We are used to not living up to expectations. He could have had a job for life.
