TCU vs Kansas Game Preview

Why TCU Will Win

TCU has picked a brilliant time to be brilliant.

It won three of its last four games, and that included a stunning 74-64 thumping of Kansas a few day ago.

How did the Horned Frogs pull it off? It crushed the Jayhawks on the glass – they were +10 in rebounding margin – and that might happen again. They’re fourth in the nation and No. 1 in the Big 12 in rebounds per game.

No, TCU doesn’t do enough from three and can’t get into a shootout, but it’s not going to put Kansas on the free throw line. Again, though, it’s all about whether or not TCU can rebound.

The 18 offensive boards were massive, but …

– Latest Polls AP | Coaches

Why Kansas Will Win

You think Kansas is going to get roasted on the boards like that two games in a row?

Baylor can lock up at least a share of the Big 12 regular season title with a win over Iowa State, but Kansas can take the other share – or win it outright with a Bear loss – by beating TCU and Texas.

TCU needs to be great defensively and it has to be every bit as tough as it was in the first game, but that’s asking to a lot after losing its last three road games. And …

– Top 25 Game Previews, Predictions

What’s Going To Happen

Kansas lost to Kentucky in late January. That was the only time in 15 tries that anyone was able to get the Jayhawks in the Phog.

TCU is about to run into a defensive buzzsaw.

Kansas wasn’t bad defensively a few days ago, but it’s not going to get whacked on the offensive glass again and TCU be able to keep up the pace.

The Jayhawks will make over half of their shots as they make up for the gaffe in Fort Worth.

Michigan State vs Ohio State Game Preview

Why Michigan State Will Win

What the hell has happened to Ohio State?

Every time it seems like it’s about to do something impressive, it loses to Maryland and lowly Nebraska.

It’s not necessarily a flaky team, but it’s not hitting from three – it failed to get to 30% from outside against Maryland and Nebraska – and overall it hasn’t been able to come up with any consistency overall lately.

Michigan State hasn’t exactly been sharp, but it’s okay from three, strong defensively at coming up with blocked shots, and …

Why Ohio State Will Win

What the hell has happened to Michigan State?

This looked like a possible player back in mid-January, and then it lost eight of its last 13 games thanks to a massive power outage.

The defense isn’t forcing mistakes for easy points, there are way too many turnovers, and getting to 70 points has been a grind.

The Spartans haven’t put up more than 70 in seven of the last nine games, they can’t seem to buy a free throw – they’re struggling to hit half of them – and they’re not coming up with enough rebounds.

Ohio State might be cold lately, but that’s an aberration – it’s one of the better shooting teams in the Big Ten, and …

– Top 25 Game Previews, Predictions

What’s Going To Happen

After losing two of the last three games at home – and going to overtime in the one win –  Ohio State could really use a little momentum.

Michigan State could really use a little anything.

The Buckeyes might not be playing well, but the Spartans have been a whole lot worse. Ohio State will hit its free throws and do well on the boards – that will be enough.

Illinois vs Penn State Game Preview

Why Penn State Will Win

It’s all about the Nittany Lion defense.

The offense isn’t going to do much of anything, but the defense went bye-bye n a blowout loss to Nebraska in a 93-70 loss. Before that, the defense was good tight games, and now it has to grind this down against the Illini.

Illinois has been off. It’s partly because it’s been on the road for three of the last four games, and it’s partly because the defense has been awful, allowing teams to hit close to 50% from the field over the last seven games.

Penn State doesn’t have to go crazy, but if it can just get to 45%, it’s in this.

However …

– Latest Polls AP | Coaches

Why Illinois Will Win

There’s still a shot at taking a piece of the Big Ten regular season title.

Wisconsin has locked up at least part of it, and can have it outright with a win over Nebraska, but a Badger loss and Illinois wins over Penn State and Iowa would be enough to get a t-shirt.

That doesn’t really matter – no one ever remembers who wins a regular season college basketball title – but it’s enough of a motivation to come up with a strong performance at home.

Amazing from three over the last few games – hitting 22-of-42 in the last two outings with the offense rocking and rolling – just getting to 70 points probably ends this because …

– Top 25 Game Previews, Predictions

What’s Going To Happen

Penn State hasn’t scored more than 70 points since the end of January and only three times since Thanksgiving.

The defense is playing well enough to keep this from getting out of hand, but the Nittany Lions aren’t going for force turnovers.

Illinois will go on an early second half run to end any drama.

Houston vs Temple Game Preview

Why Temple Will Win

The Owls are making a late run with a desperate hope of getting on the bubble – they need this.

They’ve won three of their last four games because of their solid defense that’s allowing under 40% from the field. They’re great at guarding the three, rebounds aren’t a problem, and no on win the AAC takes more free throws.

Houston might have won the first meeting, but the offense struggled in the 66-61 fight. Temple allowed just 4-of-22 from three and stayed in the game late, but …

– Latest Polls AP | Coaches

Why Houston Will Win

Temple can’t shoot. Actually, Temple can shoot, but it doesn’t make enough baskets.

It’s a brutal struggle for the Owls to get to 70 points with the inability to do much from three. Throw in the problems on the free throw line – they take them, but they don’t make them – and it shouldn’t take much of a scoring push to get by.

The Cougars are on a nice five game winning streak with the defense ramping up the intensity over the last three games, so …

– Top 25 Game Previews, Predictions

What’s Going To Happen

Expect the Cougars to lock this down fast.

Temple’s defense is just good enough to keep this from getting out of hand, but Houston can win the AAC regular season title outright and can take the Memphis game off.

Threes have been a problem for Houston, but it’ll get to the line plenty of times and keep pulling away from the free throw line.
