The same reason that Florida didn't go to the South: the top 4 teams were seeded so that if all 4 get to Atlanta, the seeds would be paired #1 vs.#4 and #2 vs. #3. Florida were the 4 seed, which left them facing the Florida bracket. The brackets are West vs. Midwest and East vs. South. Based on the seeding, there's no way Kansas stays in the Midwest. Besides, OSU wouldn't have been the #1 in the Midwest over Kansas if they had gone your route as they were seeded #3.
