I do hear a lot of "They lost, BUT", and "this young team will eventually blah-blah-blah", etc.

Meh.

During the Tennessee game they sort of compared this year's Jayhawks team to 05-06's team (the first year with mostly Self's players), when they started 3-4 and went on to win the Big 12 tournament (and lose to Bradley in the big tournament). The difference is there were 6 players that had decent minutes in 04-05 that played a part in 05-06's team, while this year there are only 2 players that at least had decent minutes last year.

So, they're as young/younger and a less experienced version of that team... they'll lose a few they should win, win a few they should lose, will probably peak early and lose in the 2nd round of the tournament. They are fun to watch though....
