Betting on the TCU Horned Frogs (14-4)
The Horned Frogs showed off their scorching offense again on Wednesday, channeling their inner Golden State Warriors in a 96-73 win at home over the Iowa State Cyclones. In fact, they shot better than Steph Curry and company, as the Horned Frogs went 36-for-63 from the field (60.3 percent) and converted 12 of their 25 attempts from beyond the arc. Despite the out-of-this-world nature of their shooting in that game, it’s actually something that TCU players regular do. TCU is 13th in the nation with a 50.2 field goal percentage and seventh overall with 88.2 points per game. The Horned Frogs are hoping that heir offense will deliver for them when they get to Kansas State’s home court.
TCU is 3-1 ATS in its last four road games.
Betting on the Kansas State Wildcats (13-5)
After losing to No. 12 Kansas on Saturday, the Wildcats wasted little time to recover, as they made Trae Young and the No. 4 Sooners crash and burn in an 87-69 victory at home last Tuesday. The Sooners are the second-highest scoring team in the nation, and if Kansas State could cripple an offense like that, then the Wildcats should be capable of doing the same with TCU. Kansas State is fourth in the Big 12 in defense only 66.5 points surrendered per contest. Kansas State holds opponents to only 45.8 percent shooting from the field. The Wildcats limited the Sooners to only 41.9 percent field goal shooting percentage, and forced them to commit 20 turnovers. On the season, Kansas State is making opposing teams get 15.2 turnovers per game.
Writer’s Prediction:
Kansas State wins, 74-71.
