2014 NCAA Tournament Free Picks<\/strong> ATS Matchup Insight<\/a> | CP Insider Gambling Preview<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n 10th Stanford scored an upset in their opening game if the Big Dance and can they come up with a HUGE one against Kansas? The Cardinal beat a New Mexico team that may thought, including me, that could be a dark horse in the NCAA tourney and they are the 5.5-point underdog facing 2nd seed Kansas in a South Region match up.<\/p>\n In their win over New Mexico Stanford did not have a good shooting night, but won with their defense, which held the Lobos to a FG% of only 36.5%.<\/p>\n The Cardinal shot under 39% in the New Mexico win, but they did hit 8 of their 15 3-pointers and Kansas have to keep Stanford from bombing away from deep.<\/p>\n Kansas did not look good in the first half facing Eastern Kentucky, as the game was tied at halftime. However, the Kansas D played well in the 2nd half and they cruised to an 11-point win.<\/p>\n Andrew Wiggins was solid in the Eastern Kentucky game and he and Perry Ellis, who are the team\u2019s leading scorers, combined for 33 points and each shot over 50% from the floor. The Stanford defense has their work cut out for them facing a Jayhawks\u2019 offense that shot over 60% from the floor in the Eastern Kentucky game. Joel Embiid is still out with a back injury and Stanford needs to take advantage of that and attack the hoop and get easy points from the free throw line.<\/p>\n Kansas is the nation\u2019s 10th ranked team and this season the Cardinal were 3-2 facing ranked teams.<\/p>\n Stanford is 5-0-1 ATS in their last 6 non-conference games, 2-5-1 ATS in their last 8 games overall, and they have an Under record of 5-1 in their last 6 games.<\/p>\n Kansas is 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games overall, 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games vs. a team with a winning S.U. record, and they have an Over record of 10-3 in their last 13 games following a S.U. win.<\/p>\n Kansas will play a better game that they did in their Big Dance opener and while the Cardinal will not get blown out the Jayhawks will win and cover the 5.5-point spread.<\/p>\n Stanford<\/strong> Kansas<\/strong> Stanford vs KU Pick – March Madness Stanford is 18-12-2 ATS with an O\/U record of 14-17-1 and Kansas is 16-17-1 ATS with an O\/U record of 19-14.
