I agree CE. Cornell almost caught an unmotivated Kansas team off guard and many ESPN analyst such as Bobby Knight think Kansas is the best team in the field this year. If Cornell "almost" beat the mighty Jayhawks then ESPN "talking heads" automatically assumes Cornell must be great too. What they forget to mention is Cornell played out of their minds that night against what was probably a sleep walking and uninspired Kansas team. Afterall, it just Cornell, easy to overlook a descent no name like this during the regular season. Come tourney time no will be overlooking any team.
In my opinion, if Cornell hadn't of played Kansas close that night then we wouldn't be seeing people like Jay Bilas picking Cornell to the elite eight. I honestly think they lose in the first round to Temple.
