For TCU vs. Kansas, the model projects that the Jayhawks cover the spread as 7-point home favorites. The Jayhawks were only 1.5-point road favorites in their overtime loss to Kansas State on Tuesday night, so that loss was not surprising. They have been dominant playing in front of their fan base at Allen Fieldhouse, riding a 16-game home winning streak coming into this matchup.
Star forward Jalen Wilson scored a career-high 38 points to go along with nine rebounds while playing all 45 minutes against Kansas State. Guard Dajuan Harris Jr. dished out a career-best 11 assists, upping his season average to 6.5 per game. TCU is coming off an uncharacteristically bad performance, turning the ball over 19 times and getting outrebounded 31-18 in its loss to West Virginia on Wednesday.
The Horned Frogs have lost 10 of the last 11 meetings between these teams and have gone winless in their last 12 trips to Kansas. They have also picked up just one win in their last eight road games overall, which is one reason why SportsLine's model has Kansas covering the spread in almost 60% of simulations.
