These last two losses are not surprising. Baylor and TCU are both really good teams and it's so hard to win on the road against good teams like that. KU's lack of toughness on the boards and against a team with some length was exposed Tuesday though. Unfortunately, it exposes us for what we really are, a three seed. Capable of making a run, but vulnerable to a bad matchup. AND, very reliable on outside shooting. If Ochai gets out of this little shooting funk we can make a run. If Ochai gets out of the scoring funk, and Wilson/Braun are hitting, watch out.
We may still end up with a two seed, and should if we win these two and the first round next week. It just hasn't felt like anything better than a good 3 seed, or maybe a lower 2 seed.
Hopefully, we learn from Tuesday, and make some contact on the opponents' better rebounders.
