The Kansas basketball team won their 14th straight conference championship this season. When nobody believed in them, this Jayhawk team found a way to overcome a variety of obstacles to win a championship in the nation’s best college basketball conference. Bill Self’s guys went 13-5 in the Big 12 and won some incredibly difficult games in Morgantown and Lubbock.
Their opponent in Saturday’s Final Four National Semifinal didn’t win the Big East. Villanova has been ranked nationally all season. They are without a doubt, one of the very best teams in the country. On the other hand, they didn’t win their conference title.
