Utah vs Kansas Prediction


In this Utah vs Kansas Prediction, Kansas is coming as -19.5 home favorites. Kansas has been the better team this season and have been almost perfect at home. They have been playing very good basketball lately with six consecutive wins, while on the other hand, Utah has been struggling with a 1-9 record in their last 10 games and have been winless on the road. Kansas has the 35th-best defense in the entire country and I expect them to dominate this game and cover the spread.
