The Pick: Kansas ML -115


You might want to check out the Baylor Bears and the points at home since they've been on a winning streak lately. But, Kansas has been playing better overall, especially against tougher teams, like when they surprised everyone by beating Colorado last week. Plus, Kansas really needs this win to qualify for a bowl game. I just can't rely on Baylor's defense, which ranks 75th in total defense and 77th in scoring defense, to stop a confident Kansas team with a dual-threat offense. So, I'm going with the Jayhawks on the road, even with the small spread.


Why the Kansas Jayhawks will win!

  • Baylor has lost eight of its last 10 home games against conference opponents.

  • Kansas has won four of its last five games.

  • Kansas has covered the spread in eight of its last nine November road games against non-AP-ranked teams.

  • Baylor has failed to cover the spread in four of its last five November games as an underdog.
