Big 12 Basketball Kansas State Wildcats vs Baylor Bears Odds, Free Pick

Saturday college Basketball and we will see the Kansas State Wildcats travel to the Ferrell Center to take on the Baylor Bears. The game has a start time of 1:00 pm (Eastern) and will be televised on ESPN U. Current Vegas betting odds have Baylor listed as 9 point favorites, while the total is set at 125.5.  

Analysis:  The Kansas State Wildcats come into this game struggling as they have lost 6 of their last 17 games, including a 14 point loss at TCU in their last game. Kansas State is now just 13-14 on the year, which includes marks of 6-8 in the big 12 and 1-8 in true road games. KSU has gone 3-1-2 ATS in their last 6 Saturday games and the dog is 14-6-1 te last 21 meetings. The Wildcats have been a poor offensive squad this year, ranking 264th in scoring (64.0 ppg), 150th in shooting (44.0%), 99th in 3 point shooting (35.9%) and 218th in FT shooting (67.9%). The defense for this team has been solid as they come in ranked 95th in points allowed (63.2 ppg), 251st in defensive FG% (44.2%) and 136th in 3 point defense (33.1%).  

The Baylor Bears snapped their two game losing streak with a good road win over Texas Tech on Tuesday night. The win now puts Baylor at 19-7 overall and 7-6 in the Big 12. Baylor has gone 9-3-1 ATS in their last 13 home games vs. a team with a losing road record and 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games after allowing less than 50 points in their previous game.The Bears have been a decent offensive team this year, ranking 116th in scoring (69.8 ppg), 201st in shooting (43.2%), 67th in 3 point shooting (37.0%) and 238th in FT shooting (67.3%). Defensively the Bears have been very good as they come in ranked 30th in points allowed (59.9 ppg), 43rd in defensive FG% (39.5%) and 25th in 3 point defense (30.0%).  

Pick: Going with the Under here. neither team plays at an uptempo pace and Baylor gives up very little at home, while Kansas State can't score on the road, plus both teams are poor from the charity and both defend the arc very well. Looks like an overall recipe for a low scoring game and that's just what I will expect here.
