Free Analysis:?Baylor put together a stellar showing during its non-conference schedule by winning eight of 12 matchups, but it has really stepped it up since Big 12 play got underway as the team has won its first three league bouts, dismissing Texas (86-79 in OT), Texas Tech (82-48) and most recently, TCU on Saturday (51-40).?Saturday's 51-40 win against TCU was Baylor's lowest output of the season and the fewest points ever allowed by the Bears in a conference game. Saturday's poor offensive effort was an anomaly for the Bears, as they rank second in the Big 12 in field goal percentage (.472) and third in scoring (76.8 ppg). Jackson is making his case for conference player of the year, as not only does he lead the league in scoring (19.2 ppg), but he ranks in the top-five in assists (6.3 apg) and steals (1.9 spg). While Jackson has done the bulk of his damage from the outside, Austin (14.6 ppg, 8.4 rpg) and Jefferson (14.3 ppg, 8.4 rpg) have been outstanding complements in the frontcourt with nearly identical stat lines. Austin can also drain an outside shot (13-of-36 from 3-point range), and Jefferson ranks second in the league in blocked shots (2.3 per contest).??Baylor owns the Big 12 Conference's second longest active streak of consecutive games with a 3-pointer (672).?
The sixth-ranked Jayhawks put their 31-game home win streak on the line on Monday when the Bears pay a visit.?Kansas has been nothing short of spectacular this season, as it sits with a 14-1 record for the third time in the last four campaigns, and for the fifth time in head coach Bill Self's 10-year tenure. The Jayhawks' only blemish came in a Nov. 13 loss to Michigan State (67-64), but since then they have ripped off 13 wins in a row, culminating in a 60-46 road victory over Texas Tech on Saturday.?Senior guard Travis Releford went 4-for-5 for 12 points and is shooting 79.4 percent (27-for-34) over the past six games. Freshman guard Ben McLemore leads Kansas with 16.4 points and senior center Jeff Withey adds 13.4 points and 8.3 rebounds. Kansas has won 13 straight games.?The Jayhawks are one of the few teams in the conference that scores more than Baylor on a nightly basis at 77.8 ppg. Pair that with an outstanding scoring defense (60.3 ppg) and they boast the league's top scoring margin of plus-17.5.
Free Pick: I like the Over in this game. These are the two best scoring teams in the Big and they should produce plenty of points in this one. Both teams were involved in low scoring games over the weekend and that is not their style's. These team's like to get up an down the floor and play games in the 70's. Both teams are in the top 22 in points per possession and Baylor is 43rd in shots per game, while Kansas is 137th. Baylor has averaged 76.8 ppg on the year and have scored 73 or more in 6 of their last 7 games. Kansas has averaged 77.8 ppg overall, including 81.6 ppg at home. Both teams are good from long range and both can hit their FT's. Should be an exciting up and down game and should also be close throughout, which should give us the fouling game in the end. 4 of the last 5 in this series has scored 150+ points and i see the same for this one. ?
