Thousands of Kansas Jayhawk fans poured into the streets of downtown Lawrence Saturday night, after KU came from behind to beat Ohio State and advance to Monday night's national title game against Kentucky. The Jayhawks have teetered on the edge all season and did it again in the NCAA Final Four. They led against Ohio State for less than four minutes, but were on top when time ran out for a 64-to-62 win and a berth in the finals. Kentucky was outrebounded but outshot in-state rival Louisville to grab the other spot with a 69-to-61 win. Number 2 seed KU will face Number 1 seed UK on Monday night for the NCAA national championship title.
