1. Is Kansas Going to be the hardest team to predict in the tourney?
George
I think, after UK and UNC, that Kansas is the most talented team in the nation. The problem is, talent only goes so far. Consistency by TRob and Tyshawn Taylor is sorely lacking. They get beat by Mizzou by a few points but blow out Baylor twice. This team is the reason I hate my brackets but love filling...

The University of Kansas and the University of Missouri squared off for likely the last time in Columbia, Missouri. The history between the two schools dates back over 100 years. But with Mizzou's move to the SEC, Kansas is not inclined to necessarily...

LAWRENCE (AP) Tyshawn Taylor hardly hesitated when the topic was broached.
Yes, he said finally, Kansas-Missouri is a little more meaningful than a typical Big 12 game.
"This rivalry goes way back before we even know, so we kind of take on that role of not really liking those guys, and I think in a competitive sport we play in, that's how it should be," the Jayhawks...
