They're a tenacious defensive team that takes quite a few threes, but they're not particularly efficient offensive, they're quite fast-paced (which works to KU's advantage in most games as more possessions leads to more opportunities) for KU's superiority to emerge, and they haven't shown an ability to win on the road at all. All of their good wins (Louisville, Georgetown, Cuse, Marquette) came at home, their best road win was probably UConn.
While they do take threes which is dangerous, I think KU fans would be better off cheering for Villanova in the UNC game. They're simply not as talented and not playing as well recently either.
