Texas at Kansas picks and predictions
Prediction
Kansas 75, Texas 70
There’s no reason to wager on the money line in this game unless you’re confident that Texas comes away with an impressive road win.
Against the spread
KANSAS -4.5 (-105) is the lean here as the Jayhawks look to bounce back at home following a disappointing loss on Saturday. After shooting 38.6% from the field and dishing out only 12 assists in the loss to Iowa State, expect Kansas to be much better on Monday.
Over/Under
Even though these teams are capable of scoring points in bunches, UNDER 147.5 (-115) is lean. The Jayhawks are 3-6 to the Under in their 9 games against ranked opponents this season.
Texas and Kansas have also gone Under this total in 6 of the last 8 meetings.
