In response to Bucknellbisonfan21
With Kansas being upset by Oregon last night, here is an update on "Bucknell Bill" Self in the NCAA tournament:
"According to ESPN, Self is one of four head coaches with at least eight No. 1 seeds in the NCAA tournament, but only one of his eight No. 1 teams has reached the Final Four.
Since the 2003-04 season, Self's first at Kansas, he is tied with Duke's Mike Krzyzewski for the most losses to lower-seeded teams in the NCAA tournament, with 10, according to ESPN. Six of those losses came when the Jayhawks were a No. 1 seed.
Self has been favored in Vegas in eight Elite Eight games in his career. He has won only two of those games, and he has covered only once, in 2012 against North Carolina."

I remember one of those ten losses to a lower seed particularly well.
