The Kansas Jayhawks and Baylor Bears face off on Saturday in a Big 12 college basketball showdown at the Ferrell Center. When these two teams faced off on February 5th it was Kansas that won 83-59. 

Ochai Agbaji and Christian Braun both scored 18 points for Kansas. Adam Flagler was the top player for Baylor scoring 16 points. 

Kansas comes into the game with a 23-4 record overall and they have gone 13-13-1 against the spread. In the last game against Kansas State, the offense scored 102 points and won in blowout fashion. Kansas is averaging 80 points per game while their defense is giving up 68.2 points per game. Ochai Agbaji has been the top player for Kansas averaging 20.2 points while shooting 51 percent from the field. There are three different players that are averaging at least 10 points per game. 

On the side of this matchup is the Baylor Bears who sit with a 23-5 record and they have gone 14-12-2. Baylor hasn’t been as dominant as of late, and in the last game against Oklahoma State they only won by two points. Baylor is averaging 77.1 points while their defense is giving up 63 points per game. Adam Flager has been the top player for Baylor averaging 13.7 points while shooting 45 percent from the field and 40.4 percent from behind the three point line. 

Kansas is 4-1 against the spread in their last five games following a straight up win. Baylor is 1-4 against the spread in their last five games following a straight up win. The under is 8-2-1 against the spread in their last 11 games after scoring more than 90 points in their previous games.

Kansas had no issues the first game against Baylor, and they are going to have another strong defensive game in this one. I don’t trust this Baylor offense to keep this game close, and Kansas will come away with the cover of the spread. Back Kansas against the spread. The lack of scoring by Baylor is also going to keep this game under the total. Look for around 140 points to be scored. 

Shane’s Pick Kansas -3.5
