Default Texas @ Kansas St. 9:00p

This a tough a game, Texas is playing as good as anybody in the country right now and Kansas St. needs this home win to avege some bad road losses recently. I really don't wanna bet against Texas and I want some action on this game. What do you think about the total 147.5, its a little higher then I hoped but both teams should be in the 70's atleast. Also its should be close and foul shots should push it over the total.

I was really leaning toward the under as i think K State will try to play with a little more control as they need this one bad. If I had to pick a side I'd take Texas but early lean is the under. GL!

tough to call if they will both put up around 75...at first glance i say no...a game won in the high 60s...i might take the under

K-St. has been a beast at home lately...

these are their conference home games to this point with their score listed first.

tx a&m
75-54

iowa st
82-57

kansas
84-75

nebraska
74-59

ok st
82-61

mizzou
100-63

They have only played 2 games within 20 points and one in single digits when KU was playing good going into the game.

Texas has been playing well of late and if they keep it up this could be a real war, but I think K-St will win this by 4-7 pts. But if I bet on this game it will most likely to be going over the total, this of course depends on what line I end up seeing.

Default Everyone has it wrong

In my opinion this game is lopsided because of K-State being so inconsistent and lately Texas is the best team in country. Texas is on fire, K-State inconsistent. Longhorns by ten.

The OVER is the best play IMO for this one. It's a high #, but Texas is at 70% for overs on the road and 67% for K-State at home. UT's D has been better of late, but look at their roadie vs. Baylor and I think you get an idea of tonight's total. I say we hit the mid 150s.

This is a very tough game for me to put money on. I took Texas in a four team-eight point teaser but would definitely stay off this game. I'm even off on the O/U. Logic will tell you both teams will score, but Texas has been playing outstanding defense the last several games. If you put a gun to my head I would pick Texas +3 and the under - but definitely a tight call. This might be a 2nd half play for me.

If you take a second to look at the schedules of both teams, you'll see that all of Texas's loses except for Missouri, have come to ranked teams..my only concern is their blowout loss at Texas A&M...Lack of homecourt advantage tonight definetly plays a big factor..Texas is hot though, real hot, winning 7 in a row, all of which against very good teams with winning records.

Kansas State has played strong at home, beating Kansas and obliterating Texas A&M. Their only home loss came to a ranked Oregon team early in the season. Kansas st is 3-4 in their last 7 games, playing pretty much the same teams Texas has played. In the past two months, no team has come within 9 points of beating Kansas state at home, and that 9 point win came against Kansas (who was ranked #2 at the time). Their last two losses (6pts and 7pts) were against very good home teams. They will look to get back on track tonight at home. Only problem is, will Beasley have to carry the whole load tonight, or will the supporting cast help?

Kansas State's superb play at home explains why Texas is an underdog in this game. Lets just see if Texas can continue it's hot streak.

P.S.

Can somebody tell me how the Longhorns defense matches up against Beasley?
