The No. 13 Kansas Jayhawks (22-7) take on the Oklahoma Sooners (18-11) in a Big 12 college basketball matchup featuring two likely NCAA Tournament teams. The Jayhawks handled the Sooners at home earlier in the season, 70-63, but this rematch will be in Oklahoma. Even so, the Jayhawks are currently 1.5-point favorites, according to FanDuel Sportsbook.
It's always good to get a few expert predictions before making a wager on a game with such a small spread, so here are what some industry pundits are saying about this matchup.
