Jayhawks host Buffaloes in Big 12 clash

NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

01/27/2007 - Lawrence, KS (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Two teams at opposite ends of the Big 12 standings meet this afternoon in Lawrence, as the eighth-ranked Kansas Jayhawks host the Colorado Buffaloes in conference action from the Allen Fieldhouse.

The Jayhawks are sitting in a four-way tie atop the Big 12 at 4-1. The team distanced itself from its only league loss of the season, a 69-64 setback at Texas Tech, with an 82-56 pasting of Baylor in Waco on Wednesday.

The Buffaloes have just one conference win in six tries and have dropped two straight games and five of their last six overall. The team was home on Wednesday, but suffered a 14-point loss to Missouri.

Kansas holds a 111-39 advantage in the all-time series with Colorado and has won seven straight meetings coming into this contest.

When a team is averaging just 68.2 ppg and allowing a little more than 10 points more per outing (78.8 ppg), it isn't hard to figure out why wins are hard to come by. The Buffs are shooting a mere .403 from the floor, with the woes continuing from long range as well (.278). Richard Roby is without a doubt, the team's top option at the offensive end, averaging 16.7 ppg. He is followed in the scoring column by Xavier Silas and Dominique Coleman, who add 11.3 and 10.8 ppg, respectively. In the loss to the Tigers this week, Silas led three players in double digits with 16 points. Freshman Jeremy Williams scored a career-high 15 points, while Roby notched 11, despite shooting just 4-of-12 from the field.

Despite being one of the youngest teams in the conference, Kansas is getting the job done at both ends of the court and is enjoying a +17.3 scoring margin. The team is shooting .485 from the floor, leading to 76.8 ppg. Defensively, Kansas is allowing a mere 59.5 ppg, on well under 40 percent shooting (.372). Sophomore Brandon Rush leads four Jayhawks in double figures with 13.7 ppg. Fellow sophomore Mario Chalmers and freshman Darrell Arthur are tied for second with 11.5 ppg, while yet another sophomore, Julian Wright adds 11.4 ppg, while leading the team on the boards (8.0 rpg). Kansas made light work of Baylor this week, as the team led by 22 points at halftime. KU shot 50 percent from the floor and just over 47 percent from behind the arc (8-of-17) in the game. Rush led the way with 18 points and eight rebounds. Wright added 16 points and six boards, while freshman Sherron Collins came off the bench to tally 13 points in 22 minutes of work.

March Madness odds and printable March Madness brackets

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship.  Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92.  After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points.  Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1.  Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years.  With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed.  UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern.  Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier.  OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak.  Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four.  It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta.  But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
