If you watched the game tonight, you can claim to have seen the best offensive performance in about 15 years, as Kansas scored a Bill Self era record 1.54 points per possession. The Jayhawks were great in all facets of the game, shooting 57 percent from two, 53 percent from three, grabbing 46 percent of their missed shots, and turning it over on just 9.5 percent of their possessions. Kansas started off by cutting Texas Southern’s zone defense to shreds, repeatedly getting it into the middle of the lane for dunks and open floaters, before expanding to the outside and repeatedly getting wide open threes.
