**** Official North Carolina vs Kansas Game Thread ****
Game time: 4:20pm CST.
As a KU fan I have no ill will toward Roy. At the same time, I hope KU demolishes UNC today. Here is a part of Roy's press conference. I still admire the guy and his respect for KU hoops. http://www2.kusports.com/podcasts/pr...-roy-williams/ |

Hats off to the crowd. I was saying to myself before the game, "These games are in KC, Jayhawk country, so why are there so many blue shirts in the crowd always sitting on their hands in these 'neutral site' games?" Not just in KC, but a lot of the sites the fans never get up on their feet! KC really represented in the KU/UNC game. The best atmosphere of the tournament so far. Great job my fellow KU fans!

This.... If not the top coach in the league, he's right up there with any of them.

That's good stuff. I said it earlier this season and I know there are some differences, but I think playing ISU and their Euro/NBA 3 point shooting style really helped prepare KU for this type of team going into the NCAA tourney.

The shots either fall or they don't. They didn't for the Heels.

This... The team that wins it all is the one that can string together enough non-cold days to make it through a field of 64. Perhaps not the only factor before the sweet 16, but after it, any cold day will mean certain death to a team - too much talent in those rounds to survive a bad day shooting..
KU has hit their stride at the perfect time. Good for them and their fans... Talent and good timing for a hot streak is a good way to win it all...

And yet, when KU lost to Bucknell, Bradley and UNI, that was a sign of being "over-rated". Or they "choked". Or Bill Self was "too afraid of mid majors". Or, or, or, or.
Nobody ever cut KU slack and said, damn: the tourney's a tough deal. 1 and done, bad shooting night and you're out. They were too busy pinning the losses as a sure sign of failure and ordering T-shirts online. |

No worries though. I've been there before. Making reeruned comments after a loss such as "you struggled against so and so, therefore you will lose soon" even though you know damn well high seeded teams have barely survived against low seeded teams and then gone on to do great things the rest of the way. It only happens just about every god damn tournament since its inception. But as I said, don't fret. I've done the exact same thing after a loss before. I'm not proud of it. |

That's the difference between playing UNC and Bucknell and the ilk Mizzou certainly doesn't get a pass for a lights out Norfolk St. team. It was a pathetic loss just like those for the Beaks.

Honestly though, I think Bradley & Northern Iowa were just as good as yesterday's UNC team. And Pomeroy agrees, rating them all in the mid-20s strength wise. Who cares what the name on the jersey reads? Florida Gulf Coast would rip Kentucky right now. Names are meaningless on a one-year basis.
