    Baylor +6 and possibly outright

    Still going back and forth on an outright win. I was big on Kansas in the first two matchups but I love Baylor in this spot. All the pressure is on the Jayhawks here. Baylor is the team that will be playing with an edge in this one and although I love what this Kansas team does with Robinson's all around game, Taylor point play, Withey blocking shots down low and some solid perimeter shooting, I think that Baylor will be the team with more energy tonight. The Bears have plenty of talent, they just need to get off to a fast start and build some confidence.

    It's not easy to beat a good team three times in one season. I just can't see another decisive win here for Kansas and I think taking the points is wise.

    Will post a play later on. Thinking about 5x on Baylor and maybe 1x on the ML.

    I like Baylor as long as this line doesn't reach 7.

    Revenge is a factor, and Baylor is the play.

    I took them +6.5, God Bless

    I don't see Baylor winning. They
    might cover 6 but takin them ML is really risky.

    KU is the better team with the better coach and it will practically be a home game for them.

    I always laugh when people rip Bill Self on his board. He has 8 straight Big 12 titles and a national title over the past 8 seasons.

    Baylor is far from a "good team" their average at best. There's a reason why Kansas has beat them twice already this year and there's not much reason as to why they won't beat them for the third time this year. Sure, you could say Baylor is going to play with a edge and with a fire under their asses but no way will Kansas just lay down and let Baylor walk all over them. Kansas will continue to do what they've done all year and that is dominate their opponent on the glass and make their open shots.

    I agree with D3, since when did Baylor qualify as a "good" team? Oh they're talented, but they're so poorly coached it hardly matters. Plus, Baylor has almost no fans because they're such a small school, they'll have to rely on Texas and Mizzou fans to do their cheering for them, assuming 60-70% of the seats at the Sprint Center won't be full of KU fans anyway.

    No way will revenge overcome the deficiency in coaching Baylor posesses and Kansas will be up for this game. Kansas is a team preparing themselves for the Big Dance and Bill Self will not let his team limp along and then try to turn it on for the tournament. It's all about getting momentum going in to the tournament , look at Connecticut last year they got good momentum and it started in the conference tournament. Kansas is not treating this game as a ho hum game. They are going to be up for it and I see Kansas winning by 10!

    No matter how bad coaching is, remember talent wins out.

    Baylor more motivated than Kansas.

    A loss might be good for Kansas in all honesty.

    that's because you can't breathe on a K -player in the paint it's a foul immediately.. but Baylor getting totally mauled and hacked by multiple defenders in the paint and never a call... it's been happening all throughout K's run in the 2nd
