00:00But it's a great time in college basketball and in the NBA 10-game slate

00:05We just ran through a couple of the biggest matchups in college hoops tonight

00:10Joe you want to talk about bounce-back spots both teams that will face off tonight in Lawrence, Kansas

00:18Desperately need that Iowa State was a 14 and a half point home favorite

00:24Inside Hilton Coliseum a place known for magic on

00:29Saturday against K State a team that is wildly disappointing this year

00:33They got beat 80 to 61, but keep an eye on the Wildcats

00:38It won three straight if covered in six in a row just something to pay attention to

00:44Kansas held a 21 point lead late in the opening half in

00:49Waco against Baylor they closed as a slight road dog, but felt like maybe that line wasn't necessarily

00:56Justified the Jayhawks blew that lead. They got doubled up in the second half

01:02Baylor scored 60 points. Okay, you only scored 30. They blew their largest lead in

01:08Program history and believe you me. They've been playing basketball for a long time in

01:15Lawrence so Joe both of these teams hoping to respond tonight inside the fog in Allen Fieldhouse

01:23Ku a two-and-a-half point favorite that total on the rise now standing at 146 in a hook

01:30Yeah, it's just unbelievable. We're at this point in the season with these two teams

01:35I mean first of all, we've already seen Kansas lose not one but two games at fog Allen this year

01:42They haven't lost three games at home then since

01:462000 in fact, they got blown out the first time these two teams played at Iowa State

01:52Now it's a revenge spot for Kansas

01:55But they got to be talking to themselves here at this particular point wondering where did it all go wrong?

02:02So are we to believe that number one Iowa State is gonna sweep Kansas in the season series, which they haven't done since

02:102016 are we expected to believe that Kansas is gonna lose a third home game at fog Allen since

02:172000 I'll tell you this it's become quite obvious when Iowa State if they're not hitting threes

02:24They ain't winning and they're not built defensively like they've been in a couple of years past great very well coached

02:31But when you go what then what they go 5 of 26 over the last two outings

02:37That's why they lost both games

02:39I would expect the Jayhawks to bring it in this game at home at fog Allen to me

02:45I think this is a dead-under by the way

02:47I think defense is gonna be the name in the game tonight the thriller in Tucson last week Caleb love from

02:5365 feet away. Yeah over time

02:56Iowa State loses outright but in their prior two games as a dog

03:01Perfect to and Oh against the spread the Cyclones have dropped two in a row

03:05Kansas Joe six and four in the big twelve when they lost eight big twelve games last year

03:10That was their most since the late 80s when they last missed the NCAA tournament

03:16All right final minute and a half of this show

03:18It's time now for a best bet for your Monday night to build up the bankroll for Super Bowl Sunday

03:24It is time now for bye. Bye. Bye

03:26Geron Erie my friend best bet for this Monday evening is where and what game

03:32Yeah, so I'm gonna go to college basketball band

03:36I'm gonna take a look at and it's a big number and I don't care but I think Virginia's in trouble on the road tonight

03:43Against Pitt here. I think Pitt who is clearly on the bubble

03:48And in an ACC that's not great this year

03:51Virginia's even worse and Louisville's already lost two starters the injury for the season

03:55So I think that Pitt has a pretty good opportunity to take out some frustration tonight

04:01I'll lay it with them at home against Virginia

04:04Big number thirteen and a half, but I agree Joe two teams in college basketball are covering eight in a row

04:10So I think it's a pretty good opportunity to take out some frustration tonight

04:14I'll lay it with them at home against Virginia

04:16Big number thirteen and a half, but I agree Joe two teams in college basketball are covering in 80% of their games or more this year

04:23San Jose State and Houston Christian from the Southland plus seven and a half for Houston Christian tonight

04:30Against Nichols that does it for a Monday. We'll see you tomorrow 8 a.m. Eastern Time on the grid
