Well, that completely sucked. Talk about playing down to your competition. I don't think KU had any focus or energy in that entire game apart from maybe the few minutes it took them to build their 5-6 point lead. Complacency clearly remains a problem for this team. Fortunately, there shouldn't be any more room to be complacent in this tournament (at least you would hope). UNC is a dangerous team and should be perceived as a threat by us. With their quick pace, it should also be more entertaining than the exasperating shitshow we had to watch tonight.
We also saw the benefit of being a 1 seed tonight (as opposed to a #2). We were able to suck that badly and still win because we were playing a completely hapless opponent. If we were playing FGCU instead of WKU tonight, the outcome would have likely been completely different. Heck, if WKU even just made a couple more threes, they're right there.
