Premium Pick

The Kansas Jayhawks have a lot of young talent as usual, but they did lose a lot of scoring inside and out from a year ago. It is going to take some time for this team to mesh the talent and find roles for a lot of new talented players. Getting them early will be the best chance teams have as they will get better as the season goes on. They played below expectations in their opener vs. Cal Santa Barbara in a slender 10 point win, and their first measuring stick game vs. Kentucky went really bad as they lost by 32 scoring just 40 points. This team has struggled on the offensive end, and big numbers, as we have here will be difficult to topple. Rider has covered both their lined games, including one vs. Princeton, and like to play in the half court as they have allowed 63 points per game in their first three. The Kansas offense hasn't gotten their yet, and therefore in a slow paced game, they will struggle to get over the top in this one. Make the play on Rider.
