The only teams we truly struggled with were maulers like K-State and teams with a dominant interior player like KU.
We lost to OSU because L'Damien Nash caught fire; shit happens. But when OSU tried to run with us, we destroyed them in the next 2 games. When Texas did the same, it was no skin off our ass.
The teams that want to try to score points with us are going to regret it unless all 4 of our shooters come out cold. And if all 4 shooters are cold, either Pressey makes some easy buckets for Ratliff, or we lose anyway.
The raw matchups really aren't that tough, there are just some very good teams that are either premier for their slot (Marquette) or a little under-seeded due to some late struggles (Florida).
Geography is the only thing that really pisses me off about this bracket; otherwise Mizzou can win it.
