The Kansas Jayhawks, (36-3 SU, 22-15
ATS, 17-20 O/U), have reached the NCAA
title game by blitzing the North Carolina
Tar Heels 84-66 while getting double
figure scoring from four players including
shooting guard Brandon Rush who scored
a team-high 25 points on 11-for-17 shooting.
The Jayhawks shot a blistering 53.1
percent from the field as a team and
33.3 percent from long distance as they
jumped on the Tar Heels early and found
a way to hold off their hard-charging
foes in the second half when they attempted
to mount a furious comeback.
The Memphis Tigers, (38-1 SU, 18-19-2
ATS, 22-17 O/U), reached the NCAA title
tilt after overwhelming the UCLA Bruins
in their semifinal showdown on Saturday,
winning 78-63 as three players scored
in double figures, including their spectacular
backcourt combination of Chris Douglas-Roberts,
who scored 28 points on 9-for-17 shooting
and freshman point guard Derrick Rose,
who added 25 points on 7-for-16 shooting
from the field and 11-for-12 shooting
from the free throw line.
The Tigers also got 15 rebounds from
power forward Joey Dorsey and nine from
Rose despite the fact that he plays point
guard.
The Jayhawks have won 12 consecutive
games coming into this matchup while
going an impressive 8-4 against the spread
over the same span.
“We’ve been playing so hard
as a team, and together, and not playing
selfish,” Jayhawks forward Darnell
Jackson said at a news conference. “Now
we've got an opportunity to make history
at Kansas.”
The Tigers
have also won their last dozen games,
but have gone an unimpressive 5-7 against
the spread over the same span. The
good news for bettors who like the
Tigers is the fact that Memphis has
covered the spread in three straight
games coming into tonight’s championship
contest, including a cover as 2-point
favorites over the UCLA Bruins in their
last matchup.

“A lot of teams come out and tend
to run with us because they really can't
prepare for our athleticism in practice,” Memphis
guard Chris Douglas-Roberts said. “And
our depth helps us out a lot because
we can bring three or four off the bench,
and they’re all running, too. It's
hard to run with a team that has this
depth the whole game.”
Kansas has managed to cover the spread
in four of their five NCAA Tournament
games, including their last contest against
the Tar Heels when they covered as 2.5-point
underdogs.
The Jayhawks have averaged 80.4 points
per game this season while shooting 50.7
percent from the field and 40.0 percent
from three-point distance. Defensively,
Kansas has allowed 61.4 points per game
on 37.9 percent shooting from the field
and 32.9 percent from beyond the arc.
The Tigers are averaging 80.2 points
per game this season while making 46.8
percent of their collective shots and
35.1 percent of its three-pointers. Memphis
has limited its opponents to just 61.6
points per game this season on 38.7 percent
shooting from the field and 30.3 percent
of their three-pointers.
“I’m coaching a Dream Team
that get along, they respect coaching,
they take on their roles and do it,” Calipari
said. “That's what's happened for
us all year.”

Analysis:
While the Jayhawks routed the Tar Heels
in their last contest and showed me
a lot about their team in the process,
I just can’t go against
the Memphis Tigers tonight. The fact
of the matter is that the Tigers have
only one loss this year for a reason.
Their depth is unmatched by any team,
even the Jayhawks while their hustle
on every single play is clearly visible,
not to mention the fact that they have
two NBA-caliber guards in their starting
backcourt, including and a point guard
in Derrick Rose that is undoubtedly better
than at least one-third of the starting
point guards in the NBA.
While the
Jayhawks certainly won’t
go quietly, I say take the Memphis Tigers
to finish of their outstanding season
with another victory and their fourth
consecutive cover against the spread.
I also
think the ‘Over’ is
going to be an absolute lock in this
contest between two of the highest-scoring
teams in the game this season.
