The Kansas Jayhawks have recently struggled with a 4-4 SU and 2-6 ATS record in their last eight games. Despite a win against No. 8 Iowa State, they faced losses to Baylor and Kansas State. Last Saturday, they were unable to defeat Kansas State despite being favored. Senior center Hunter Dickinson has been a standout player for the Jayhawks, averaging 16.3 points and 9.6 rebounds per game. The team ranks 49th in offensive efficiency and 5th in defensive efficiency in the country. They are currently ranked No. 11 in the NCAA NET Rankings and No. 17 in the AP Top 25 Poll. Additionally, the Jayhawks have a 16-7 overall record and have shown strength in both offense and defense, with impressive field goal percentages and defensive stats.
Buffaloes' Turnovers and Defense No Match for Jayhawks' Dominance
The Buffaloes rank 351st in the nation in turnover percentage at 21.7%, with conference play seeing an even higher turnover rate of 23.3%. In addition, Colorado's defense ranks last in the conference in free-throw rate at .419 and 3-point percentage at 36.6%. Based on these statistics, it is unlikely that the Buffaloes will be able to compete closely with the Jayhawks on the road. In contrast, Kansas has a strong defensive record, leading in opposing 2-point percentage at 44.9% and ranking second in opposing 3-point percentage at 28.8%. Kansas also allows just 90.4 points per 100 possessions in conference play, the second-best in the Big 12. With these factors in mind, it is anticipated that the Jayhawks will effectively stifle the Buffaloes and surpass the spread.
