Premium Pick

Kansas has lost four of five mostly due to some key injuries, but the Jayhawks are never to be taken lightly in the NCAA Tournament. Guard Kevin McCullar is out for the tournament with a knee injury, but center Hunter Dickinson is expected to play. Samford won the Southern Conference title by winning three games in three days and defeating East Tennessee State 75-69 in the final. The Bulldogs are just 3-5 ATS their past eight games and didn't quite cover against the Buccaneers. The Jayhawks have gone UNDER six of nine, including by 15.5 points against Cincinnati as they were ousted in the Big 12 Tournament. Samford has gone UNDER six in a row as an underdog and the Bulldogs are 5-0 UNDER against teams with .600 winning percentages. Kansas is #15 in the country with a .404 opponent field goal percentage and it allows 68.7 points per game. The Big 12 has the pedigree advantage against the Southern Conference. Take Samford/Kansas to stay UNDER (Max Play).
