I'm sure you and I both would kill to have our teams be "not that great."
That being said, I hope Kansas gets throttled, but I wouldn't say they got "exposed" tonight. Davidson played some of the best D that I've seen this year.
Don't know where you got the 29-3 record, because they were 26-6. They also started the season 4-6, with losses against Wester Michigan, Charlotte, Duke, UNC, NC State, and UCLA.
I'm not saying they weren't good. They throttled a good UW team and beat some other good teams on their way to the EE. However, I'd compare them to a watered down George Mason. They had hardly any inside presence, and had it not been for Curry, they would have been knocked out in the 2nd round.
They were good, but nothing more than a really good story.
