Kansas Pulls a Houdini Act and Beats Ohio State

Kansas has been underated and under appreciated all season, their best player made sure that would happen no more.

Tyshawn Taylor made two big free throws late, and All-American Thomas Robinson finished with 19 points and eight rebounds Saturday to lift the Jayhawks to a come-from-behind 64-62 win against Ohio State in the Final Four -- a game Kansas led for a grand total of 3 minutes, 48 seconds.

The Jayhawks (32-6), who trailed by as many as 13, overcame another deficit and finally held on against the Buckeyes (31-8).

Another magic act may be needed on Monday night.  Kentucky awaits in the Championship game.

"It's a dream to play the best team in the country, up 'til now, hands down, the most consistent," Kansas coach Bill Self said. "It's a thrill. And I think it's even more of a thrill for us because I don't think anybody thought we could get here."
