Stanford, a 7-point underdog, is 0/9 from deep and still on the verge of upsetting Kansas. This game is nuts.

To reset the KU big man situation: Black fouled out. Traylor exhausted. Ellis MIA much of game. Embiid in sweats.

Stanford's TO% was well below the conference average in Pac-12 play.

Huege block by Huestis.

The fact that Self can't even play Wayne Selden right now is a major problem. Kid has totally lost his confidence.

The Wiggins instinct to get the board and go right back up is a strong one. Not helping much against the Trees' trees.

On replay, "You know, instead of the pass that worked really well, they COULD have done something really dumb and risky."

This is so much fun.

The good news is whatever team takes Andrew Wiggins won't have to face Stanford.

Wow. Carry called on Randle.

They called palming. (eyes to heaven, prayers answered).

This game will be decided on an administrative technical foul

Kansas cannot make an inside shot. Stanford cannot get the ball to midcourt without a nervous breakdown. Hot mess of a game, but great fun.
— Pat Forde (@YahooForde) March 23, 2014
Thats a strong take from Dwight Powell.
— Jeff Goodman (@GoodmanESPN) March 23, 2014
Good. Call

Wiggins turnover. What a nightmare game he has had.
— Pat Forde (@YahooForde) March 23, 2014
Well, time to start fouling and extend the game if you’re Kansas.
— Raphielle Johnson (@raphiellej) March 23, 2014
Woah did you see how athletic Wiggins was diving on the floor after his turnover?
— Ben Swain (@TheBenSwain) March 23, 2014
Bingo RT @amandarykoff: It's clear Kansas angered the basketball gods by not wearing their beautiful throwback uniforms.
— Chris Dobbertean (@ChrisDobbertean) March 23, 2014
The stat to remember today: Kansas is 6-for-17 on layups against a team that was basically average in the Pac-12 defending the rim.

in other news, these are the games bill self always struggles with. the ones we think he shouldn’t lose, but he knows he might lose.

That would've been a tip dunk vs EKU, great rebound.

People didn’t even talk about Stanford beating New Mexico. And look at them now. 32.4 away from Memphis.
— Raphielle Johnson (@raphiellej) March 23, 2014
RT @EvanMarkfield: Apparently all the top NBA prospects thought THEY had to tank to be the No. 1 pick.
— Ben Swain (@TheBenSwain) March 23, 2014
Cracks in Kansas were clearly visible down stretch. Guard play vanilla. Few complementary options to Wiggins. All it took was one bad AW gm.
— Brad Evans (@YahooNoise) March 23, 2014
uh oh
— Steven (@akulawolf) March 23, 2014
That's the Mario Chalmers dribble handoff play, but run to the other side of the court. Saw that one coming.
— Pat Forde (@YahooForde) March 23, 2014
Kansas had the 1-10-11-12 regional in San Antonio a few years ago and didn't win it. Florida could face the same if SFA beats UCLA.

I'm beginning to think we undervalue shooting when we talk about recruits.

Stanford or Dayton will be in the Elite Eight.
— Jeff Goodman (@GoodmanESPN) March 23, 2014
Andrew Wiggins goes for 4 points on 1-of-6 shooting with 3 rebs and 1 asst in his final college game.

W/Kansas loss, #Florida is nation’s only team that has reached last 4 Sweet 16s

Down goes Kansas. Florida's updated road to Dallas: winners of SF Austin/UCLA, Dayton/Stanford. Memphis is no Indy
