For years, we've watch Bonnie Bing have all the fun with her terrific fashion sections. Great clothes, unique photo locations, and models who didn't look like they just played 40 minutes of hoops.
So that's what we're going for in our college basketball section: style. We asked many of our subjects to "fashion up" for us, and our stories reflect ever-changing styles in the college game. (We even got Bonnie to weigh in on the uniform choices for Kansas, Kansas State and Wichita State.)

High stakes for KU-KSU
BY J. BRADY MCCOLLOUGH, The Wichita Eagle | Today at 3:43 a.m.
All week, Kansas and Kansas State players and coaches downplayed the magnitude of today's game at Snyder Family Stadium. But for evidence that the Sunflower Showdown is indeed important for gauging where each program is headed, it would be wise to remember the aftermath of last season's game:

Newman steps up to plate
By Paul Suellentrop, The Wichita Eagle | Today at 12:07 a.m.
It's an exhibition game, and even fans need to warm up their lungs. Wichita State plays Newman tonight in a men's basketball game that doesn't matter, except for the people to whom it matters a great deal.
