Interesting fact about Houston

[PittMan2003]

If Houston makes the Final 4, they will have beaten:
1. 15 seed Cleveland State
2. 10 seed Rutgers
3. 11 seed Syracuse
4. 12 seed Oregon State

Rutgers would have been the highest seeded team they beat. Sometimes you need a little luck...

Kansas beat #8 UNLV in the second round that year.
