We are still waiting to see the Friday games in the college basketball tournament to see which teams will be moving on to the Elite 8. Even before those games are played, we can still look ahead to Saturday and the first couple of games in the next round. Of the four teams on that side of the bracket, the FAU Owls are the lowest seeded team remaining, but they have defied the odds from the start, so they cannot be counted out against the higher seeded Kansas State Wildcats. This is another example of a game where you cannot simply blindly play the higher seeded team, and the bookies agree with that, as they have this one as being incredibly close. The Kansas State Wildcats are in as the favorite, but only by a half point, which essentially makes this game a pick play. The point total for this one is currently set at 144 ½. So, check out the betting analysis to bet against the March Madness odds.

Why bet on the FAU Owls

The FAU Owls started this tournament as an underdog in the opening round, but they edged past Memphis, winning by a single point to move on to a much easier 2nd round game versus Fairleigh-Dickinson. They were a big favorite in that one, and while they won and moved on, they failed to cover the spread. They were an underdog again in the Sweet 16, but they ended up taking down Tennessee by a 7-point margin. This is a team that is now on a 10-game win streak, and who appear to be riding that momentum in a big way. The Owls have now covered the spread in 7 of their last 10 games, but things are even more convincing in Saturday games, where they have gone 16-6 ATS. In terms of the point total, the Owls have seen the UNDER hit in 5 of their last 6 games overall.

Why bet on the Kansas State Wildcats

The Wildcats came into March Madness with very few people giving them much of a chance of making a deep run, even though they are a #3 seed. They came in on a losing skid, but they appear to have peaked at the right time. They won and covered the spread in the opening round, but the majority of college basketball fans expected their run to end in Round 2 against Kansas, but they went on to win by 6 points in a game that they started as a 3-point underdog. They took out Michigan State in an OT thriller in the Sweet 16, covering the spread for the 3rd straight game in the tournament. The Wildcats have now covered the spread in 7 of their last 9 overall, as well as being 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games at a neutral venue. The OVER has hit in 5 of the last 6 games for the Wildcats.

Expert Pick and Final Score Prediction

It has been a surprising run for both teams, but it is going to come to an end for one of them on Saturday night. When in as the favorite, Kansas State has won by an average of just over 14 points this season, and while this one will be closer, I still think they will win and move on.
