Bill Self and Kansas (21-12) enter the first round of the NCAA Tournament boasting a talented and well-rounded game. With standout veteran players leading the way in fifth-year seniors Hunter Dickinson and Dajuan Harris, the Jayhawks are known for their high-scoring offense and tough defense. Kansas will look to control the game with their depth and experience, making it difficult for Arkansas to keep up.
John Calipari is no stranger to the Big Dance and it's no surprise Arkansas (20-13) is in the tournament even though this is Calipari's first year as the head coach of the Razorbacks. Arkansas will bring energy, athleticism and a fast-paced style of play as they look for the upset in the first round. Can Calipari's squad capitalize on the inconsistent play Kansas has put forth this season and push the pace to have a chance at taking down the higher-seeded Jayhawks?
