Today i have been home sick with this stomach bug that's going around (Capper Chris knows}. When i havn't been in the bathroom I've been surfing all the gambling sites that I go to and Iowa St seems like an overwhelming choice for tonight. Why ? The only game I've seen them play this year they lost at home to a very mediocre Boston College team not nearly as good as a Kansas team that looks like it's starting to work the kinks out. I'm leaning toward Kansas -the six. Am I missing something here ? Any thoughts?

I haven't heard or seen anything unusual on this game. I normally don't play on or against ranked teams too often as the lines are ususually much sharper.

Both teams look good so far. Although I think Kansas should win by double-digits, Iowa State has controlled this series as of late. Both teams have a good ATS record in the month of January over the past 3 years.

A small wager on Kansas for me.

Kansas foward Simien and center Niang are out, from what I've been able to gleen from other boards there is quite a large drop-off from Simien to his backup, and after his backup they will go with 3 gaurds. Hope this helps.

My buddy Falcon has Iowa State...so...that's who I will play. I hope he's right.

Easy winner. Sets up a nice play on Jan 11 when KU hosts Neb.Nice dog play here. As a result of tonights score KU will be laying a huge number that will be inflated and Neb will cover as history does indeed repeat itself.
