Ted Lasso (Jason Sudeikis) is from KC and people from Kansas speak in a Midwest accent. I don’t get it. I grew up in STL and lived in KC for 3 years. We don’t have southern accents. I’m I missing something?

Sudeikis has said previously that he based his character from his HS basketball coach. Being raised in KC (KS side), the accent is fairly common around here. Some find it exaggerated, but I don’t. I guess I was raised around hicks 🤷♀️
He actually grew up in Virginia and moved to KC as a teenager.
How did he attend Brookridge Elementary School in Overland Park, KS if he didn’t live here? Actually.
