But then the Jayhawks unleashed a barrage of plays, some believable, others not, that reminded everyone watching why KU spent most of the season ranked in the Top 5 and, perhaps more relevant today, why No. 1 seeds are undefeated all-time against No. 16 seeds in the Big Dance.

It’s been fun. But there have been very little bracket-busting games.
