Duke barely beat Butler-- A mid major with just over 4000 students.
BTW they are National Champions. If you think you can get up for every team and play your best every night then you probably have never coached before. Winning ugly is still winning. Winning barely is still winning. Winning when your shots are not falling and holding teams in the 50's is still winning.
SV barely beat BL, lost to PCC etc. BTW they are State Champions. How many in the 14th and 15th would love to have their problems. For that matter how about any region or state.

As for KCC, I have seen alot of really good teams get to Rupp and fall short of expectations because of the fact that there has been a long span of time between appearances. SV took other teams to the state that could have won more games but you can get caught up in the atmosphere and be overwhelmed by the stars in the stands and the cameras in your face.
