Shane’s Free Pick
Jalen Wilson is playing like a National player for the year right now, and he’s going to have a strong game here. Kansas had their defense give up only 58 points on Friday and the defense is going to step up again in this game. The lack of scoring by Texas will be the difference as Kansas gets the job done. Back the Jayhawks against the spread.
