Providence Friars
A lot of people have doubted this Providence team and yet here they are. Now, we will see what they are really made out of when they face off with this excellent Kansas squad.
The Friars dismantled the Richmond Spiders on Saturday by a score of 79-61. Richmond may have had some magic in them against Iowa, but that sure as hell was not the case when they took on PC.
After getting bounced out in horrific fashion to Creighton in the Big East tournament, some were unsure how these guys would do once March Madness started up. Of course, there is still a long ways to go here, but through their first two games, it does not look as if that defeat has gotten to them.
In their last win, they exerted their dominance from the beginning until the end of the game. The offense looked free flowing and the defense put a clamp on whatever the Spiders wanted to do, which led to the final score being so lopsided.
Kansas Jayhawks
Kansas keeps on playing very well. There are a lot of talented and well-coached teams left in this tournament, but I would have to put them at the top of that list right now.
The Jayhawks enter this sweet 16 matchup with a record of 30-6. They do have a few losses that have made people scratch their heads, but when it has mattered most, they have shown up time after time.
These guys picked up a hard fought win over the Creighton Bluejays on Saturday by a score of 79-72. There were times throughout the game, especially toward the end of it, where it got a little too close for comfort, but they executed when they had to in order to get the job done.
Remy Martin was the leading scorer for this group last time out with 20 points, 7 rebounds, and 4 assists. If he can play his highest level of ball to go along with their other key/role players, it is going to be very hard for anyone to knock them off.
CBB Betting Trends:
- Providence is 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games.
- Providence is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games against an opponent in the Big 12.
- Kansas is 7-0 SU in their last 7 games.
- The total has gone over in 15 of Kansas’ last 19 games played on a Friday.
Free Providence Friars vs. Kansas Jayhawks NCAAB Summary:
Yes, Providence played in a very good Big East conference, but they did not face anyone on the level of Kansas this season. Friday is a chance for them to prove that they can hang with/knock off a top dog in the sport.
4* Free CBB Betting Pick: Providence ATS
Providence is not the more talented team here, but I do not see them being intimidated by this Kansas Crew. If they are on their game, they do have the ability to keeps things relatively close and that is what I feel will happen here.
To me, this is the type of game that will end up being close when all is said and done. Given how both teams are playing, I find it hard to believe that it would be a blowout by either side.
I am as bullish on Kansas as almost anyone out there, but I do not love them laying this number against the Friars. For me, it is a little too high of a number in this spot.
Give me Providence getting the 7.5 points here.
