TCU at Kansas picks and predictions

Prediction

Kansas 74, TCU 68

Moneyline

PASS.

At -450, there is no profit to be made betting on Kansas, which has not lost since mid-November.

Against the spread

LEAN TCU +9.5 (-115).

TCU has covered in 5 of its last 10 games, including 2 of its last 3 on the road. With an 11-2 straight up record, it is too solid of a team to be confident betting against, even against a tough Kansas team. Kansas is just 3-7 ATS in its last 10 and has covered the spread just once in its last 5 games.
