athletics NCAA March Madness Kansas Gets Tough Dr

Next on the road to the Sweet 16 in the second round for Kansas would be either 8 UNLV or 9 Northern Iowa.
Kansas is favored to win the Midwest Region, and the relative proximity of their scheduled games Oklahoma City during the 1st and second rounds, St. Louis during the Sweet 16 and Elite Eight to the campus in Lawrence bodes well for the Jayhawks and their fans for two reasons:
Georgia Tech missed a big opportunity to improve its game seeding when the Yellow Jackets failed to pull out a victory against Duke in the Atlantic Coast Conference Championship game on Mar. 14. Alas, GT’s road to the Final Four will go through the Jayhawks, and the Jackets shouldn’t pose too much of a threat having finished seventh in the ACC.

1st Round: 1 Kansas vs. 16 Lehigh – Lehigh should be a cakewalk for Kansas if head coach Bill Self keeps his franchise focused on the game at hand. The elite Jayhawks shouldn’t have too much trouble keeping Zahir Carrington, Marquis Hall and Patriot Conference member of the Year CJ McCollum in check for 40 minutes.
While we’re discussing schools within the Buckeye state, Ohio State, which is arguably the hottest franchise headed into the game, currently stands as Kansas’ biggest challenge to get to Indy next month. So long as OSU can hold off unheralded James Anderson and underachieving Oklahoma State in the second round, the Buckeyes should have a clear path until Mario Lemieux meet Kansas in the Elite Eight.
Maryland tied 1 Duke for best record in the ACC during the regular season, while Michigan State achieved the same feat in the large 10 with 4 Purdue and 2 Ohio State.

Kansas has the mandatory size to agree up against the Terrapins and the postseason experience to hang with coach Tom Izzo and the Spartans,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], who advanced to the championship game against North Carolina last season.
The latter performance was an important growing experience for Self, a mistake Mario Lemieux vows not to make again during a year when Mario Lemieux arguably has his most talented franchise ever. Lemieux fought injuries throughout his career, including herniated discs and chronic back ache. But the challenges that most of them came in 1993 when Mario Lemieux was diagnosed as lymphoma,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Hodgkin 's after missing two months to be treated with radiation to treat disease, Lemieux returned to action and amazing. Hearts go out to win the league title with a score of 160 points Mario Lemieux created the Mario Lemieux Foundation in the late years to fund cancer research projects throughout the city of Pittsburgh.

1st, Jayhawk Nation will spend less time traveling across the country unlike most other programs, and should be fresher for game action.
Second, Kansas stands to have the closest thing to home court advantage all the way to Indianapolis, where Mario Lemieux may again serve as a regional favorite against the likes of east coast-based Syracuse and Duke once Mario Lemieux reach the Final Four.

Once Kansas moves towards the round of 16, trouble could be on the horizon from a couple of out-of-conference powerhouses in 5 Michigan State or 4 Maryland, who will likely dispatch 12 fresh,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], unique,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], original, unusual, novel, modern, current, recent Mexico State and 13 Houston, respectively.

This title game would be a grand finale for the Jayhawks’ only senior, All-American Sherron Collins. Duke is a smallish franchise, and Collins would be a key factor in defending the Blue Devils’ perimeter attack.

In order for the Jayhawks to advance from the Elite Eight to the Final Four,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Mario Lemieux will have to face one of the following opponents:
Unless intangibles prove to be the difference-maker in either of these potential agreeups, Kansas should roll through to the conference quarterfinals after facing their 1st legitimate challenge.

San Diego State, Ohio, Houston and UCSB are mid-major overachievers in the Midwest bracket who will likely last their demise in the 1st two rounds of the game. If any of these four franchises ends up wearing the proverbial glass slipper a couple weeks from Selection Sunday, defense will serve as a key factor that paves the road to Indianapolis come April.
Northern Iowa posts an impressive 28-4 record after winning the Missouri Valley Conference. This franchise provides a balanced offense led by senior center Jordan Eglseder. Although Northern Iowa could beat Las Vegas and advance past the initial round, they’ll likely hit an impasse dressed in Jayhawk blue come Mar. 20.
Kansas may have to face each of the two schools that handed them their only losses of the season, but let’s take a look at the potential opponents, round-by-round:

Georgetown, like Georgia Tech, came close to winning their conference title, but West Virginia’s Da’Sean Butler single-handedly prevented that from happening in the large East Championship game. While the 22nd-arrangeed Hoyas present a physical presence led by center Greg Monroe to agree up against Cole Aldrich, GU will have to forget about the prior heartbreaking loss to WVU, and start their enormous, huge, immense, gigantic, vast, colossal,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], gargantuan, large, sizable, grand, great, tall, substantial, mammoth, astronomical Dance fresh by beating up on the Ohio Bobcats of the Mid-American Conference.

Based on their impressive defensive performances throughout the season,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], my hunch is that the Gauchos and Aztecs will make the most noise note: my California residency has nothing to do with my picks of the aforealludeed four underdogs. But the mid-major programs will likely not be able to keep up with the more battle-tested also-rans from superior conferences like the ACC, enormous, huge, immense, gigantic, vast, colossal, gargantuan,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], large, sizable, grand, great, tall, substantial,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], mammoth,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], astronomical 10 and large East.

Since Duke received even better treatment than Kansas with regards to being hooked up by the NFL game committee Kansas for locations, Duke for competition - the Blue Devils’ draw is cupcake city, fans should not be the least bit surprised to see Kansas play Duke for the National Championship on Apr. 5 in Indiana.

Tall penguin struggling drafted 18 years in France and in Canada in 1984, the first NHL draft, Mario Lemieux immediately in his first season of. Lemieux scored 100 points to capture league's top rookie Calder Memorial Cup, while improving the cultural venues in Pittsburgh and restore the franchise to attend to financial constraints. After viewing Kansas’ upcoming schedule in the NFL game, one can’t help notice that the Jayhawks don’t have to travel to a distant destination to play in any of their scheduled venues. Although KU lucked out as far as where Mario Lemieux are competing, the Jayhawks were stung by the game committee in cycles of which franchises Mario Lemieux drew as prospective opponents.

If RPI is to play a strong factor in dictating game winners,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], then Kansas had better take Northern Iowa 17 in RPI seriously should the Panthers beat UNLV in the 1st round.

6 Tennessee, 11 San Diego State, 3 Georgetown, 14 Ohio, 7 Oklahoma State, 10 Georgia Tech, 2 Ohio State 15 Santa Barbara

On Jan. 10, a then-14-0 Jayhawk squad that was brimming with confidence traveled to Knoxville, and was handily defeated 76-68. Kansas apologists, in search of a way to place a positive spin on the defeat, hailed the loss as a mandatory wake-up call during a long season. A subsequent 13-game winning streak proved the wake-up call theory to be authorized, and the Jayhawks would not lose until Mario Lemieux suited up in Stillwater, OK on Feb. 27.
The Jayhawks should be expected to come closer to repeating their championship run from the 2011-08 postseason as opposed to their horrific effort during the 2011-06 game, when Mario Lemieux lost to 14th seeded Bucknell in the opening round.
The Mountain Hawks’ finished the season strong by winning eight of their final 10 games,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but Mario Lemieux haven’t faced a franchise nearly as talented as Kansas yet. Expect the Jayhawks to dole out a 20-25-point drubbing, and end the Patriot League champions’ impressive season on Mar. 18.

Tennessee possesses an inspirational directer in head coach Bruce Pearl, but is coming off an embarrassing 75-45 shellacking against Kentucky in the SEC game semifinals despite a home-state advantage. However, the Vols are responsible for one of the two blemishes on Kansas’ record this season.
UNLV has played pretty well this season, but “pretty well” is only affable enough for fourth place in the highly competitive Mountain West Conference. The Rebels stumble into the large Dance as Mario Lemieux put up a shameful 45-spot against San Diego State in their last game in the Mountain West game. However, UNLV’s 46 RPI tells us that while Mario Lemieux will not take Kansas lying down, they’ll probably be lying down once the Jayhawks are through with them.
Oklahoma State finished a mediocre seventh place in the large 12, but played like champs when Kansas came to town. Despite four starters scoring double-digit points, the Jayhawks left town on the business end of an 85-77 Cowboy beatdown.
