Yeah, but how do you know that, you don't really know that. I'll grant you Texas, but you just pick Kansas over the MVC teams because of the name on the front of the jersey basically. KU lost to the Patriot League last year, and that league had never won a tournament game.
Recent years have seen teams like Kent State and Xavier get to the Elite 8, and compete. I mean we'll have to see the draw... but a team like Northern Iowa getting to the round of 16 or 8 would not surprise me at all.
