Why We Like Kansas
As a home team, Kansas has only lost six games out of 77 (92.2% win percentage) since 2017.
Ochai Agbaji scored 22 points, Harris showed some moxie by blocking Mike Miles' shot in the final seconds. and the sixth-ranked Jayhawks avenged their loss to the Horned Frogs two days earlier with a 72-68 victory that forged a tie with Baylor atop the Big 12 heading into their regular-season finales.
Christian Braun was 4 for 4 from the field and added 12 points, Harris scored 11 and David McCormack finished with 10 for the Jayhawks (24-6, 13-4), who will face No. 21 Texas on Saturday just hours before the third-ranked Bears face Iowa State to decide the conference title and the No. 1 seed in next week's Big 12 Tournament.
“That’s a hard team for us because they’re so athletic,” Self said, “and it negates us in a lot of ways. They can switch and they’re interchangeable. It’s a hard matchup for us.”
Kansas is coming off three straight failed covers while Texas is coming off four.
Some may be scared to bet KU being that they have won the last three in this series. One of those games was in Kansas with the Jayhawks a -5 favorite. This wasn't just a win, it was an 84-59 pummeling.
Again, we like Kansas on the moneyline. They should be at around -275.
