This is a nice mix of two teams that like to do different things. Which imposes its will on the other team more? Kansas likes to score 80 points per game and has gone Over the total in 13 of 22 contests. Texas leads the nation in points allowed at just 54 per game. Texas won both meetings last season, and both went Over - one in double-overtime. I think the Longhorns win the pace battle and keep this game Under the total.
My model says the Longhorns cover in well over 60 percent of the simulations, so you're getting strong value with them at this number. Texas has won four of its last five games, with two of the victories coming against ranked opponents. Meanwhile, two of the Jayhawks' three defeats this season have been versus top-25 teams. The Longhorns are 11-35 in the all-time series but won both meetings last season. Look for Texas to make it three in a row.
