KU wasn't "relying" on anything, they were simply "going about the motions" and getting some 'play' time. They didn't pressure PS like they usually pressured their opponents on D, and they also didn't focus on play calling or setting the usual screens. A few times, early on, I noticed a lackluster attempt by KU to set screens.

I expect them to play a tenacious D against UNLV though. They will have to, 'cause the Runnin' Rebels like to run like the UNLV teams of old. And they can play a mean D as well. I expect KU to give UNLV fits.

I got the same feeling. Like this was a "I'm gonna get my points" game.
