Australian-born Nate Tomlinson spent much his first season in U.S. college basketball adapting to the physical play in the bang-about Big 12 Conference. Much of Season Two has been spent coping with the game as it's played above the shoulders, between the ears.
Tomlinson, Colorado's starting point guard, concedes his sophomore year has been plagued by more inconsistency than either he or coach Jeff Bzdelik had hoped.

"Yeah, I have been pretty inconsistent this year," he said. "I lost a little bit of confidence at the beginning of the year and I'm just trying to get it back now."

But if you saw Tomlinson Wednesday night against Oklahoma, you left the Coors Events Center believing as much as in Tomlinson as he surely left believing in himself.
