The big game is about to start, so I figured now's a good a time as any to list the top five reasons to hate Kansas. Without further ado...

5) Rock Chalk Jayhawk?
Huh? You're supposedly a top athletic school and you can't even have a slogan that makes sense? Rock Chalk Jayhawk? What does that even mean? How many questions can I ask in a row? Seriously, though, get a catchphrase that makes sense and then we'll talk.

4) They screw up my bracket every year.
Every year you think Kansas is going to be great, they get upset early. Year after year, I watched Kansas destroy my bracket by losing to schools like Bucknell. So this year, what do I do? Pick Kansas to get upset early. And how do they repay me? By making it all the way to the championship game. Thanks Kansas. This hatred can go both ways, though.

3) Their fans are so sure of themselves.
As mentioned earlier, for a team that loses to small schools every year in March, their fans sure are arrogant. Do they not remember that every year before this one Kansas has underachieved? Talk about annoying.

2) The school is based in Kansas.
Chalk up my hatred to the fact that I'm from Missouri all you want, but I'm pretty sure every level headed American hates Kansas. Seriously, what is there to do in this state? I've thought about this for weeks and can't come up with anything. I challenge any reader to comment on one interesting thing to do in Kansas. Just one!

1) Seriously, the school is based in Kansas.
Why do you think they're so good at basketball? They have nothing else to do!
