Iowa State Cyclones vs Kansas Jayhawks Predictions 1/14/2023

Once more, they are here. The Kansas Jayhawks are once again close to the top of the NCAA basketball standings as if it were a yearly right of passage.

Even if the Jayhawks have higher ambitions for March, their standing will be important to their chances of securing a top seed in the tournament.

Kansas only lost once this season, to Tennessee, and already defeated Duke, Wisconsin, and Indiana. The Jayhawks defeated Oklahoma at home on Tuesday by a score of 79-75.

The Jayhawks prevailed despite the fact that they only shot 37% from the field and that the Sooners outrebounded them 37-36. KJ Adams Jr. scored the most points (22), followed by Jalen Wilson (17).

Tuesday night, Kansas demonstrated that they can triumph even when they don’t play at their peak. However, they will need to step up their offensive game because the Cyclones’ defense is quite stingy.

With the 39th-ranked scoring offense in the nation, Kansas should be up for the challenge. The Jayhawks are ranked 21st in the nation for 3-point shooting from the outside.

Kansas, which is ranked 87th in the nation, does a good job of defending the basketball. With the 71st-ranked scoring defense, Kansas is very excellent on defense.

Kansas has good perimeter shooting ability; they rank 58th versus 3-point attempts. Finally, Kansas is strong on the glass, coming in at number 54 nationally.

The Kansas Jayhawks are 6-3 ATS in their last 9 matches.
The total went OVER in 9 of Kansas’ last 13 matches.

#14 Iowa State Cyclones vs #2 Kansas Jayhawks. The NCAAB pick for this game is the #2 Kansas Jayhawks. Since the 2019–20 season, Kansas did not suffer a home loss to a Big 12 opponent while winning 15 consecutive matches.

The Jayhawks are a far better offensive club than Iowa State, and they can guard the ball very effectively. In this game, Iowa State will receive its fair share of stops, but the outcome will depend on each team’s capacity to generate second chances.

In that aspect, Kansas’ 54th-ranked rebounding unit significantly outperforms Iowa State’s 254th-ranked rebounding squad. Kansas will have more possessions and second opportunities than Iowa State.

Kansas also plays superior ball protection than Iowa State, as shown by the Jayhawks’ six turnovers in their most recent game versus Oklahoma.

Although it will be a dogfight, Kansas’ ability to generate offense will allow them to eventually pull away. The #2 Kansas Jayhawks will win to a predicted score of 71-62.
