Why Kansas can cover
Kansas has already proven itself against some elite teams this season, beating then-No. 9 North Carolina and then-No. 11 Duke. The Jayhawks also beat Michigan State in Atlanta last month to go along with four blowout wins over lower-level teams. They easily covered the spread as 21-point favorites in their 86-51 win over Furman last weekend.
KJ Adams Jr. matched his career high with 22 points in the win over the Paladins while adding six rebounds. Senior center Hunter Dickinson leads Kansas with 15.7 points and 9.1 rebounds per game. Creighton has been massively overvalued so far this season, covering the spread just once in its last nine games. See which team to pick here.
Why Creighton can cover
While Kansas has picked up some impressive neutral-site wins, this will be its first true road game of the season. Creighton will have a rowdy crown on hand for its biggest home game so far, especially since it needs to erase the memory of a three-game losing streak from the end of November. The Bluejays were able to take one step forward last weekend, picking up an 80-76 win over Notre Dame.
Senior guard Jamiya Neal had 21 points and nine rebounds, knocking down 7 of 17 shots from the floor. The Bluejays are one of the few teams in the country that can handle Dickinson, as senior center Ryan Kalkbrenner is one of the best big men in college hoops, though his status is in some degree of doubt due to a lower-body injury. He is averaging 18.1 points and 8.6 rebounds per game, and Creighton is 8-1 in its last nine home games. See which team to pick here.
