TCU vs KANSAS PREDICTION PICK

TCU hasn’t played since Jan. 12th because of Covid so you can expect them to be a little rusty. Kansas dominated TCU a few weeks ago and now they have to face them coming off 3 losses. Bill Self doesn’t like to lose and this is a rare situation losing 3 straight. Kansas will be looking to take those 3 losses out on someone and it’s going to have to be the Horned Frogs. The Jayhawks dominated the boards in the first matchup especially on the offensive end and should be able to repeat that performance because TCU does not have a lot of size or length in the frontcourt. This game should be similar to the first match with the exception of Bill Self will be unleashing fury and vengeance upon the Horned Frogs. The Bookie is rolling with the Kansas Jayhawks to cover the spread in a game that should go Over the total in a blowout.
