It’s not like if the 2012 team beat the Anthony Davis UK team. Nor is it like the ‘03 Syracuse team beating us.
Compared to the field, 2022 was absolutely a great team. They just aren’t historically great like 2008.

Sure, but I don't think anybody here truly believed the 2022 KU team was going to win it all going into the tournament based on how they'd played during the season. They also got just about every break over those couple weeks imaginable. Nothing wrong with that, but it very easily could have gone differently at any point.
