Q: How many former Jayhawk players watched the final game between Kansas and Missouri at Allen Fieldhouse?
A:11
TRIVIA OF THE DAY
THE MORNING BREW This year's Jayhawks had true passion
kusports.com
A after the craziness of the college basketball season, I finally feel like I recovered. It's odd to say I recovered because all I did was watch and cheer on the Jayhawks. However there is something that draws all fans together, especially Kansas fans; passion.
This year's team proved to me that passion can lead to great success. Kansas played with passion which allowed it to defy the odds. The number of times the Jayhawks trailed at halftime and came back to back to win the game is unbelievable. Most top five teams plan to win outright with a comfortable lead. That was the story of Kentucky's season, but Kansas' will to win is what made its season great not just for Jayhawk fans.
Watching the final minutes of the Border Showdown game in Columbia. Mo., was just heart-wrenching.
especially knowing that victory was inches away. Several analysts predicted that loss was an indication that the Tigers would win the Big 12 season championship this year rather than the Jayhawks. Instead of letting the loss negatively affect the rest of the season, Kansas turned into a winning machine. With an impressive win against Baylor, Kansas established the fact that the Big 12 season championship was still up for grabs.
During round two of the Border Showdown at Allen Fieldhouse, my heart sank as Missouri got a 19 point lead in the beginning of the second half. Honestly, I should have known better. Kansas grabbed the lead in the final moments of the game with a highlight ending. This is just one game.
Again and again the Jayhawks showed Purdue, North Carolina and Ohio State that with the will to win, anything is possible. In the beginning of the NCAA tournament, the Jayhawks were definitely not the overall favorite to win. Every game preview I read started with different types of skepticism regarding Kansas' ability to win. Each time, fans got the thrill of proving the previews wrong. Kansas made it to the final game by battling until the end. With each victory, the passion grew as well. This season, like every season, was unique
but incredible because the fans, the program and the players all care and have passion about being a favhawk.
As I approach my senior year, I hope to have that same determination and passion for what I am doing. At 5-foot-1, I know I won't ever dunk like Thomas Robinson, but there is something out there that I can strive to be the best at. All I have to do is find my passion.
