DES MOINES, Iowa — With a spot in its first Sweet 16 in three seasons on the line Saturday against No. 9-seeded Connecticut, the Kansas basketball team had a simple approach to the night before the high-profile showdown:
Netflix and chill.
(The literal meaning, that is.)
“We’ll probably just watch a movie tonight, or just watch ball as a group,” KU coach Bill Self said. “We’ll get away from it as much as we can.”
The top-seeded Jayhawks (31-4) looked to be heeding Self’s words during a laid back media availability Friday in the team locker room at Wells Fargo Arena.
