Kansas vs. Purdue....

[gobluedrew21]

IF the team is fortunate enough to get past Oregon.... am I crazy to be thinking I would feel better about playing Kansas than Purdue?

1.)Michigan has snuck past Purdue twice
2.) It's really tough to beat a good team 3 times... they've seen tons of tape on Michigan which Is huge given the 1 day to prepare.
3.) I actually feel that Painter is a better X and O coach than Self.
4.) Michigan is actually taller than Kansas.... Albeit less athletic.

Valid points.....but one factor that could be huge is the homecourt advantage that KU would enjoy.
Also, I'm sure both schools are watching tape on each other this week.
Much like we kinda "redeemed" our loss to Louisville in the title game a few years back, KU may also have that in the back of their mind too about "payback".
Regardless of matchup, we're still the underdog.

KU is freaky athletic and have the size in the middle as well. I think both games will be tough assuming we can sneak past Oregon which is also a very solid team.
