I think pressure is sometime used a little too much. In this case sense of urgency is more like it considering a good portion of this team/ or players who made some sort of impact outside of Kaun will be leaving after this season so it may be the one final last go around for those players. The bottom line is that KU and UNC primarily have HUGE targets on their backs and they're gonna get everyone's best shot. This is not the time to **** off on the court because now you won't be able to get away with it. Teams will be prepared and it is Self's job to not be a dumbass and get these players prepared and put them in positions to win. As Herm would say at the end of the day you have to go out and play. this is the deepest KU team since 2001-02. And I believe this team is tougher than that one, maybe not as talented. Lets hope to God Self won't choke in the elite 8 (if they even get there).
