Samford, the No. 13 seed in the Midwest Region, enters the tournament with an impressive 29-5 record and the title of Southern Conference champions.
Their high-scoring offense, averaging 86 points per game, makes them a potential upset pick against No. 4 seed Kansas, especially with the Jayhawks missing star guard Kevin McCullar Jr.
Despite the late tip-off, the Bulldogs are eager for the challenge.
