Texas vs. Kansas CBB Prediction:
Both teams look to win consecutive games on Saturday.
Give me the under. Neither team shoots the long ball extremely well and Texas will likely try to limit possessions in this one, they can’t win in a track meet against KU. Furthermore, Kevin McCullar is not going to be 100% if he ends up playing, which is a massive loss to the Jayhawks offense. Under is the play.
Texas vs. Kansas College Hoops Prediction: Under 144.5
