    Line is talking to me: Kansas -6
    Baylor will probably move to #3 in the polls tomorrow with UNC's loss yesterday. They are 17-0 and have already beaten some really good teams. Kansas doesn't appear quite as strong as the past few years but they are still a very very good team nonetheless. I understand this game is at Allen Fieldhouse but it looks like oddsmakers are making it pretty clear who they are backing.

    For the record, I don't think Baylor is as good as most people do. Jayhawks -5.5 or -6 will be my play in this one.

    KU -4/-5 at home is about right as far as odds are concerned. Baylor has the most depth out of anyone in the country. The play here is KU -3 first half.

      This line is making love to me.

      Also, nice call on that KU-3 1h. I love it.

        Right so usually books give the home team the 3 point advantage. We'll say 4 or even 5 for Kansas at home. That still means they think Kansas is the better team with a 6 point line.

          Kansas is not a better team on a neutral court. If you play Kansas here, then you are saying home court will be worth 10 points or so

              This would be a pick on a neutral court. KU is down this year and people really don't know how good this Baylor team is when they have all players playing well at once (even though we got a glimpse of it on Saturday when they played Oklahoma State).

                  Take it easy... Baylor undefeated on road, and overall. There is nothing wrong with riding a hot team.

                      look I'm not playing this game but people backing Kansas do realize that Tyshuan Taylor is gonna turn the ball over like a machine against this Baylor squad. But if if comes down to Kansas drawing fouls and getting to the free-throw line KU will out shoot Baylor from the Charity stripe

                                why not watch it live and get a little better odds depending on the who's hot early?

                                  He thinks Baylor is better than Kansas and Kansas getting too many points for Home Court.

                                  HFA is big in CBB.

                                  Home teams won 71% of their games this year. Over 3000 game sample.

                                      Not sure about this one t-wizz. Love the fact that Baylor is a public dog -- that works in your favor -- but I've watched both of these teams play a lot and the line seems about right. Baylor may struggle a little with Kansas' frontcourt, but they're legit. Good luck -- I'll be on the sidelines here.

                                                  home court is probably worth 5 in this game. very tough venue that will be extra rowdy. im gona watch the first maybe play the 2nd half
