I like how this team is playing this year, I just hope they sustain it in the Big XII tournament and the NCAA tournament.

It really won't, though. That's a myth.
Assuming we're a 1 or 2 seed, we'll play a scrub in the first round, a team ranked around 30th in the second round, and nothing better than about the 15th best team in the third round. That's if everything holds to form, and it rarely does.
There's nothing tougher than what we did this week until you get to the Final Four, and there's almost always a Cinderella plus another team that is good but far from great.
Look at what Kansas did last year. They played a 16 seed, a 9 seed, a 12 seed, and an 11 seed. How in the **** did that team not make the Final Four?
I swear to God that I believe that Self would be getting a ton of heat from Kansas fans if Davidson had beat them in 2007.
