Everyone has blips and kansas will have more then most because of their lack of big game experience(anyone else notice their are 0 seniors on the team) When your offense is being run by a freshman it takes time to get timing down. Last night he showed both sides of himself. If he's patient, they will be fine. If not someone will step up and beat them.

The two most disciplined teams in the Big 12 have beaten them. Kansas is so athletic they look hard to beat. I keep up with the Big 12 and I think Kansas can easily go down to a patient older team that runs a time consuming offense and plays defense. I dont think Kansas is fundamentally sound. I think they play very aggressive defense but its not smart, they take too many risks and dont help well on D. I think they hit the boards very aggressively, many times at exactly the wrong time. I have already seen how frustrated they can get with teams that take the air out of the ball like ATM and TT. On the other hand they can give any talented team trouble, especially if they feel they are underdogs. Just dont see the consistency to make the final four, but of course this depends on how they are seeded and matchups.

Do think Scavs has hit the right teams at the right time. All 3 are playing very well right now.
