Paid $535, got like $560 for session 3, and $215 for session 2. Maybe got rid of 2 too early, but if isu ends up in session 1 I'm going to be taking it in.

They beat KSU by 22 3 games back and lost to Baylor by 6 before that.

Texas is also a 7 and they were 3-8 against ranked teams while KU was 7-4... Texas lost to Marquette by 21 and Houston by 21 and (oh shit) Kansas by 19.

Does it make sense to you to put those two teams on the same line?

Alabama is a 4 seed... they're 2-4 recently, lost to Florida by 18 and Kentucky by 23 and Auburn by 18 and Tennessee by 20. They should probably be a 7 seed, too.

9:55 EST tip Thursday night. Glad I took Friday off. Seems like we get the latest game every year. For some reason the higher seed gets to play first and have more rest + scout time which seems fair.

But look at the last 18 games
10 games
5 games

Yes Alabama should be lower

That’s not 4 seed

Good reason to skip work on Friday

You'd also have to reconcile Texas being worse in the Big 12, far worse against the top 25, losing to KU by 20... you can't put them both on the same line when KU's resume is clearly better.

And now you're saying Bama also isn't a 4 seed, so who are the two 5+ seeds deserving of a 4 seed if KU and Bama aren't?

It's fun to play committee chair and just throw numbers against the wall, but you have to compare against the field.... and the field this year is pretty damn mediocre.

I've said several times that Kansas is soft as ****, they've mostly been uninspired since at least January, and was saying over a month ago their top 10 ranking was laughable based on how they were playing...... but again, go find better 4 seeds then.

When healthy, they’re probably a 2 seed.

Without Dickinson or McCullar, they’re probably not a tournament team at all.

Hence the #4 spot.

Teams with consecutive seasons of getting a Top 4 seed in the NCAA tournament.#KUbball - 23
Purdue - 4
Baylor - 4
Arizona - 3
Tennessee - 3
UConn - 2
Houston - 2
Marquette - 2
Alabama - 2
The #Jayhawks have the longest streak of getting a Top 4 seed in NCAA tournament history.

Self said they were and that’s all they had to go off of.

McCullar will be ready to go. Who knows if he'll be at his best, but it's a similar situation to what Remy Martin dealt with and we saw how that turned out.

Self says that Dickinson's already practicing and has been doing great.
