14 seed KSU vs 3 seed Xavier. 14 is the highest we could've possibly hoped to be, and Xavier wasn't expected to be a 3 seed. All in all, an extremely favorable draw for our first NCAA tournament, especially considering some predictions had us against Big East champs Marquette instead of the runner-up (and others had us against Big 12 teams). I mean, we're obviously not gonna be anywhere near favored to beat Xavier, but it was about as good a draw as we could've hoped for.
