The thing about kansas is that they are nearly unstoppable when they are shooting well. I think in the Big 12 title game, they hit something around 15 of 25 from distance.
But get a team against them that plays a physical brand of ball, they tend to wilt (see UCLA/So. Illinois from last year). What helps them this year is that they have a cakewalk to the Final Four. This might be their best team yet since Self took over, and in my mind it's a massive failure if they don't make it this year.

When did Wisconsin/Georgetown/Clemson become a cake walk?

I hate my DC bracket...must of changed it at least 6 times already. I have only one one seed in the final four and a number 2 winning it all (you have to wait till the bracket is availabel for viewing later today to see my picks).
And I simply cant imagine UCLA reaching the final four for the third straight year. And I'm stuck on a Louisville-Tennessee matchup in the 2nd round.....

When did Wisconsin/Georgetown/Clemson become a cake walk? Wisconsin and Georgetown are good teams, no doubt about that. But they are mis-matches with kU when you look at personnel. However, Clemson is the only team you mentioned that can match-up speed and athleticism-wise. They'll give them problems should they meet. |

Wisconsin cannot beat Kansas, coming from someone who's been forced to watch them all year, and from what I know about Georgetown, they play similarly, not good for Kansas.

At least State's kicking ass. I wasn't expecting it, but I sure won't complain.

Next season Felton needs to teach some people how to drive and pick up fouls.
Ridiculous.

Lol, I still dont get it.
Everyone loves upsets, loved GMU, but in every forum I post at, very few people were rooting for UGA during this game. Makes little sense to me.
