Oklahoma State at Kansas Predictions

Given the current odds and recent trends, the ‘Under’ pick for a total line of 144.0 seems to be the prudent choice for this matchup.

Kansas Jayhawks have been strong at home, but their games at Allen Fieldhouse have trended towards the ‘Under’ with a 5-7 record this season. Additionally, the Jayhawks’ defense, despite recent struggles against the three-point shot, has the potential to tighten up and control the Cowboys’ offense, which has not been particularly explosive this season, averaging 71.8 points per game.

The Cowboys’ road woes, with a 0-4 record and a tendency to perform below expectations away from home, further support the expectation of a lower-scoring affair. Moreover, Oklahoma State’s against-the-spread (ATS) record on the road is 1-5, indicating they often fail to meet scoring expectations in away games.
