The bracket is out and the 68 teams are seeded. Kansas landed a No. 3 seed and will open NCAA Tournament play on Saturday against No. 14 Eastern Washington. All games will be played in Indiana. If the Jayhawks win the opener, there are three possible second-round opponents: sixth-seeded Southern California, or the winner of an opening round game between 11th seeds Wichita State and Drake.
On today’s SportsBeat KC, we hear what KU Coach Bill Self had to say about the Jayhawks’ spot in the field, and he provides the latest on the team’s COVID-19 situation. Kansas couldn’t finish the Big 12 Tournament because of a positive test, and two players couldn’t participate in Kansas City because of COVID-19 protocols.
