Podcast: Kansas finally breaks through to the Final Four

The Kansas Jayhawks finally did it, dispatching the national villain known as Grayson Allen and the Duke Blue Devils to do it. We break down the game, the reactions, and the upcoming matchup against the Villanova Wildcats in the Final Four.

And somehow, we didn’t mention to even talk about Malik Newman, the guy probably most individually responsible for Kansas getting to the Final Four.

Topics discussed:

-What was the insanity like where you were watching that game?

-Twitter Q&A (via @nameerbaker): Who guards Brunson, who guards Bridges, and is Spellman being able to draw Dok out on the perimeter canceled out by Dok being able to take Spellman inside?
