For Miami, this is their first Elite Eight appearance in the program's history. They're just happy to be here while Kansas makes their living going on deep tournament runs. Kansas has a nasty one-two punch with Christian Braun and Jalen Wilson the duo is combining for 25.5 points per game and 13.8 rebounds per game. If Miami wants to have a shot, they're going to need their star to outshine those two.
Kameron McGusty is averaging 17.8 points per game and 4.9 rebounds to go along with it. Where this game can get out of hand is rebounding.

Miami ranks 311th in the nation in defensive rebounds. If they're going to be able to beat a team like Kansas they're going to need extra possessions and not being able to get boards is going to hurt their chances. Between Kansas' shot-blocking and rebounding, it could be a very, very long day for Miami.
Kansas has appeared in the Final Four 15 times in their history, appeared in the Championship six times, and won it all three times, the last coming in 2008. As one of college basketball's powerhouses, it'll be difficult not to pick them over Miami to reach the next round.
