"Every year there's that one team in the like final eight, Final Four that no one expected to be there, and that's been our mantra like 'Why can't that be us this year?" Dayton Coach Kavanaugh told ESPN.com.
Stanford forward Josh Huestis told ESPN.com that his team has never considered itself a long shot. The Cardinals have defeated teams like UConn, Oregon and UCLA during the regular season.
"Coach (Johnny Dawkins) always tells us that there are only a handful of teams that come into this tournament thinking they have a chance to win," Huestis said. "The rest of them are just happy to be here. We pride ourselves on being a team that believes we can win this whole thing."
The Cardinal defense held the Jayhawks' freshman phenom Andrew Wiggins to just four points on 1 of 6 shooting. It went a long way into Stanford advancing to the second weekend.
Dawkins said the postseason has brought out the best in his veteran team, which starts three juniors and two seniors.
"What we've done very well the last several games is we defended at a high, high level every possession," Dawkins said. "We always talk about the importance of defending every possession. It's one thing to say that -- it's another thing to go out and execute it."
