9:00 p.m. ET: Oklahoma State Cowboys (12-12) at Kansas Jayhawks (20-4)

Spread: Kansas -10.5
Total: 143.5

The #8 Kansas Jayhawks host the Oklahoma State Cowboys after Jalen Wilson scored 22 points in Kansas’ 71-69 victory over the Oklahoma Sooners on Saturday. The Jayhawks have gone 12-1 in home games. Kansas leads the Big 12 averaging 79.6 points and is shooting 49.7%. The Cowboys are 5-7 in conference matchups. These teams play for the 2nd time in conference play this season after the Jayhawks won the first meeting 74-63 on Jan. 5. David McCormack scored 17 points to lead the Jayhawks to the win. Ochai Agbaji is shooting 50.5% and averaging 19.9 points for the Jayhawks. Oklahoma State has lost 5 of the last 7 games and is ineligible to play in the postseason because of a ban announced by the NCAA in early November regarding an FBI bribery investigation. Bill Self expressed disappointment in his players’ performance to the media after Saturday’s win and it wasn’t pretty. You can expect to see a big game from Agbaji as he was specifically called out. You will see a better effort on the boards from the entire team and if they can knock down some free throws they should roll over Oklahoma State. Kansas struggled from the line on Saturday which is why the game was closer than it should have been. Take the Jayhawks to get a big win in this one.
