KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Big 12 Conference has suspended coach Texas Tech coach Pat Knight one game for complaining about the officials following Saturday's loss to Texas A&M.

Knight received a technical foul in the second half of the 79-73 loss in Lubbock for arguing a foul call and complained about the officials afterward to reporters, saying he didn't care what the Big 12 thought.

The son of temperamental coach Bob Knight, Pat Knight also was publicly reprimanded by the Big 12 earlier this month for being ejected after running onto the court twice to argue a foul call in a game against Nebraska.

Assistant coach Stew Robinson will replace Knight for Wednesday's game against Texas.

The Red Raiders are 12-15 overall, 2-10 in conference their first full season under Knight.
