UNLV at Kansas

The last time Kansas faced a Mountain West program in its nonconference finale, San Diego State entered Allen Fieldhouse and handed Bill Self one of his nine home losses ever at KU. That was last January and now comes a very good and big UNLV team that has already knocked off Arizona. UNLV sophomore Christian Wood, a 6-foot-11 forward, is projected to be a first-round NBA Draft pick, averaging 15.7 points, 9.8 rebounds, and 3.0 blocks per game. The Runnin' Rebels are 15-6 ATS in their last 21 road games, as well as 13-6-1 ATS non-conference games. No. 13 Kansas is home, but just 1-1 the last two games. They are off a win over Kent State, but the Jayhawks are 4-9 ATS in their last 13 games following a win. This group shoots 42.4% as a team and got blasted by Temple two games ago, a 77-52 defeat.
