In the last 50 years..
The mighty Jayhawks have:
2 National Championships
2 NCAA Tournament Runner-Ups
9 Final Fours
33 Tournament Appearances (25 Straight)
22 Regular Season Conference Titles (some shared)
19 Conference Tournament Titles
17 1st Team All-Americans, several with multiple recognitions (3 Nat'l POTYs too)
30 McDonalds All-Americans have chosen Kansas
12 Olympians (10 Gold Medalists)
And with all that we've managed to amass a fantastic 1,089-368 record over our last four coach's tenures (.747%), a 54 game home winning streak and a 30-2 (937%) record against the mildcats (since the Big XII was created)
In the past 50 years..
The powerless mildcats have:
1 Final Four (46 years ago)
Hell, I'll honor lame achievments:
7 Elite Eights
11 Sweet Sixteens
13 Second Rounds
But back to real things;
18 NCAA Tourny appearances
9 Regular Season Conference Titles (some shared of course)
5 Conference Tournament Titles
Less All-Americans than us
Less olympians than us (if any)
But you can't forget some other fantastic things they have done:
Go 1-20 (.047%) at Bramlage Coliseum (The Octagon, Allen Fieldhouse West) when they claim they have a fantastic home court..pffft.
Invent silly things like 'EMAW' and 'The Octagon of Doom' to make themselves feel like a decent basketball program
and
Get DOMINATED by the Kansas Jayhawks
So in review:
5>0
13>4
177>90 (I guess this wasn't just history)
Kansas Basketball: 177-90 (.662%) All time versus Kansas St.
We are the dominant species in Kansas.
So prepare for Saturday when you will continue to look futile and pitiful in your so called 'Octagon of Doom'
With love,
Sam
