3. Mizzou is not a "very bad" team. They're actually pretty decent, ranked 22 in the KenPom rankings, ahead of the likes of Pittsburgh, USC, and Gonzaga. If you missed it, they're now coached by Mike Anderson, a twenty year Nolan Richardson disciple and basically his basketball clone. He had a lot of success in his few years at UAB, and has Mizzou playing much the same style this year. 40 Minutes of Hell is a great equalizer, and it's not that surprising that they were able to stick with Kansas.
