Kansas (14-1) has worked their way back up to #2 in the country, winning eight straight games following their lone blemish of the season 64-50 against Tennessee at the end of November. The Jayhawks are double digit favorites at home (8-0) against an Oklahoma (10-5) team that just picked up their first conference win of the season in a 68-63 win at Texas Tech on Saturday.
Before Betting on Oklahoma vs Kansas
Tuesday’s game is your true offense vs. defense matchup. Not that the Jayhawks struggle on offense by any means, but their defense is holding opponents to 39.6% shooting from the field which is second lowest in the Big 12 while Oklahoma is shooting 49.2% which is the second highest in the conference.
It should be noted the Sooners shoot well, but they don’t shoot often as their 68.3 ppg are the lowest in the conference and coach Porter Moser continues to run a plodding tempo that has seen 9 of 15 OU games go under the total this season. Oklahoma actually has the 14th fewest possessions per game in the nation.
It’s an interesting strategy for Oklahoma to try and slow things down in the half court set considering the Jayhawks have the 8th best offensive efficiency in the nation. Jalen Wilson is scoring 20.2 ppg for KU, while Oklahoma’s top scorer Grant Scherfield (16.9) is in a mini-slump with just 15 total points the last two games.

Oklahoma vs Kansas Prediction & Pick
KU has won three straight in the series, but it’s been pretty close when these two teams meet up with a margin of victory of 7,5, and 2 over that span. There hasn’t been a game decided by more than Tuesday’s 10.5 point spread since 2020, so the points is the route to go here especially with Oklahoma’s excruciatingly slow pace.
