Pretty tough to beat a team that luck sacks out 27 points in the first half, no shot of which was less than about 25 feet. Granted they are going to make some 3 balls, but even Michael Jordan only shot 41%.
This is what the NCAA wants, which is why they keep adding more and more of these luck sack teams every year, and why officiating and rule changes allow for more and more of them to be "Cinderella Stories".
In the past 25 seasons, no team has been more dominant than the Jayhawks, with 707 wins between the 1985-86 & 2009-10 seasons.[3] Kansas has the longest current streak of consecutive NCAA tournament appearances (22), the second-longest current streak of winning seasons (28), the most winning seasons in Division I history (92), the most conference championships in Division I history (54), the most first-team All Americans in Division I history (27) and the second-most wins all-time (2,037). And 5 national Championships.
So go ahead a reap your 15 minutes, but I have a feeling that the Jayhawks will be back next year for another 30+ win season, and a 9th consecutive big 12 title.
In the words of Wilt Chamberlian (who also played at Kansas) "nobody roots for Goliath".
