Seton Hall vs Kansas Prediction & Pick
Seton Hall hasn't looked good enough to upset Kansas. The Pirates have been outscored by 18 points over their last two games and only shot 32.7% from the floor against an unimpressive Siena squad. Furthermore, they're one of the more turnover-prone teams in the nation, coughing the ball up 15.6 times per game (T-No. 303).
While the Jayhawks haven't been flawless overall, they are 4-0 at home this season. Kansas also has a solid plus-21.5 point differential at Allen Fieldhouse, whereas Seton Hall is a minus-5.7 on the road.
With Seton Hall also losing 10 of its last 13 games against the Big 12 while Kansas is 5-0 straight up in its latest five against the Big East, all signs point to a Jayhawks victory tonight.
Final Score Prediction:'Kansas: 75 | Seton Hall: 67

Seton Hall vs Kansas Best Bet
Even though I predict that Kansas will win this game, I don't expect the Jayhawks to cover the spread. For starters, Kansas is only 1-4 ATS in its last five games while also achieving four of its last five victories by a single-digit margin. On the other hand, Seton Hall is 5-0-1 ATS in its last six road games and could keep things interesting at times.
Back Seton Hall to make things closer than the spread implies.
