Kansas vs UConn Prediction

Kansas probably should be favored at home, where it’s unbeaten. The Jayhawks are also 5-3 ATS on the season, while UConn is 2-5 ATS on the season. I get it. However, I’m laying the bucket with UConn, which is the better team player for player. Kansas is great defensively and that’s going to play an even bigger factor at home, but the offense has gone through droughts at times. UConn has been more efficient offensively, and it defends at an elite level as well. This could be a defensive slug fest, so the under is worth a look also. For the pick on this article, I’m on UConn.
