The Kansas Jayhawks are going to hear their names called on Selection Sunday as one of the 68 teams participating in March Madness, so why does it feel like the program is a shell of its former self?

Instead, the No. 6-seeded Jayhawks wilted in an 88-77 loss at T-Mobile Center. A prime example came when Kansas trailed by five with 4:06 left. Kansas turned the ball over on two straight possessions and eventually lost another winnable game.

Arizona kicks off postseason play Thursday during the Big 12 tournament quarterfinals. The Wildcats benefit from a double-bye in their debut appearance in Kansas City and will square off with Kansas.
