<p>The 2021-22 college basketball season continues Saturday, February 26, with the marquee Big 12 Conference matchup at Ferrell Center in Waco, Texas, so we have prepared the best Kansas vs. Baylor betting pick and odds.</p>



<p>The Jayhawks meet the Bears for the second time this term. Back on February 5, Kansas trounced Baylor 83-59 as a 2.5-point home fave. This time around, the Bears are listed as 2.5-point home favorites, while the totals sit at 150.5 points on <a href="https://www.bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/betdsi/">BetDSI Sportsbook</a>.</p>



<h2>Kansas smashed Kansas State for its fourth win in a row           </h2>



<p>The Kansas Jayhawks (23-4; 13-14 ATS) improved to 12-2 in the conference play following a 102-83 thrashing of the Kansas State Wildcats this past Tuesday. It was their fourth straight victory and sixth in the last seven games, as the Jayhawks easily covered a 12-point spread on the home court.</p>



<p>Kansas tortured Kansas State all night, making 64.1% of its field goals and 62.5% of its 3-pointers. Senior guard Ochai Agbaji led the charge with 23 points, seven rebounds, and five assists, while junior guard Christian Brown added 20 points, seven boards, and five dimes.</p>



<p>Now, the Jayhawks are topping the Big 12 Conference, a game and a half ahead of Baylor and Texas Tech. Kansas is No. 5 in all the AP Top 25 Poll, NCAA NET Rankings, and KenPom rankings. The Jayhawks score 121.2 points per 100 possessions (4<sup>th</sup> in the nation) and surrender 95.0 in a return (31<sup>st</sup>).</p>



<h2>Baylor aims for its second straight victory            </h2>



<p>The Baylor Bears (23-5; 14-13-1 ATS) are coming off a narrow 66-64 overtime victory at the Oklahoma State Cowboys this past Monday. Playing as 5-point road favorites, the reigning NCAA champions recorded their second consecutive victory and fourth in the last five outings.</p>



<p>Baylor shot only 36.8% from the field against the Cowboys. Junior guard Adam Flagler went off for 29 points on 11-for-20 shooting from the field (7-for-13 from deep), while another junior G James Akinjo posted a line of six points, four assists, four steals, and a couple of rebounds. Akinjo made a game-winning shot in overtime.</p>



<p>The Bears improved to 11-4 in conference play. They are No. 10 in the AP Top 25 Poll, No. 6 in the NCAA NET Rankings, and No. 4 in the KenPom rankings. Baylor tallies 118.2 points per 100 possessions (9<sup>th</sup> in the country) and allows 91.6 to its opponents (15<sup>th</sup>).</p>



<p><strong>Trends:</strong></p>



<p><strong>Kansas:</strong></p>



<ul><li>2-4 ATS in the last six games on the road</li></ul>



<p><strong>Baylor:</strong></p>



<ul><li>N/A</li></ul>



<h2 id="h-kansas-vs-baylor-pick">Kansas vs. Baylor Pick</h2>



<p>The Bears must be fired up to get revenge for that heavy loss at the Jayhawks earlier in the season. I’m expecting a tight battle down the stretch, as Baylor certainly possesses enough defensive weapons to slow down the Jayhawks’ prolific offense.</p>



<p>I don’t feel comfortable with the side bet. It feels like a coin flip even though the Jayhawks have dominated the Bears as of late. Since 2019, Kansas has gone 5-2 SU and 5-1-1 ATS in seven encounters with Baylor. I am going with the Bears this time around. They are 7-3 SU in the last ten outings at home as favorites of 2.5 or fewer points.</p>



<p><strong>Pick: Take Baylor -2.5 at -110&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></p>



<p><strong>The Total:</strong></p>



<p>The under is 5-3 in Kansas’ last eight contests, and it is 4-2 in Baylor’s previous six. Their first encounter of the season has produced 142 points in total, so I’m backing the under. Four of the last five meetings between Kansas and Baylor have gone under the total. Also, the under is 14-4 in their previous 18 encounters.</p>



<p>The Bears have to slow down things and force the Jayhawks into half-court basketball. Baylor needs to bring its best defense in order to beat Kansas, so I would be surprised if we get a proper high-scoring affair.</p>



<p><strong>Pick: Go under 150.5 points at -110&nbsp;</strong></p>

<p>Another inter-conference tilt will take place on Thursday, March 9, in the NBA, so make sure you check out the best Jazz vs. Magic betting pick and odds.</p>



<p>Utah is desperate to avoid the fifth consecutive defeat when they visit Orlando at Amway Center. The Jazz are slight 1-point favorites on <a href="https://www.bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/betdsi/">BetDSi Sportsbook</a>, while the total is set at N/A points. These inter-conference rivals will face for the second time this year; the Jazz won 112-108 in Salt Lake City.</p>



<p><strong>Jazz couldn’t edge the Mavericks in Dallas</strong></p>



<p>The Utah Jazz (31-35, 35-29-2 ATS) suffered a disappointing home loss to the San Antonio Spurs and then opened a six-game road trip with three straight defeats to the Oklahoma City Thunder and Dallas Mavericks. While they didn’t have a chance against the Thunder in both games of a back-to-back set, the Jazz nearly surprised the Mavs in Dallas. Still, the hosts edged the Jazz 120-116 and Utah is now out of the play-in places.</p>



<p>Lauri Markkanen led the Jazz with a game-high 33 points, six rebounds, and two steals. Talen Horton-Tucker added 21 points, six boards, four assists, and two thefts, Kelly Olynyk had 12 points, seven rebounds, and two steals, while Kris Dunn chipped in 11 points, team-high eight boards, and game-high five dimes.</p>



<p>G Collin Sexton (hamstring) is out indefinitely. C Walker Kessler (illness) and PG Jordan Clarkson (finger) are questionable to feature on Thursday against Orlando.</p>



<p><strong>Magic disappointed against shorthanded Milwaukee</strong></p>



<p>The Orlando Magic (27-39, 35-30-1 ATS) returned home from a three-game road trip with two wins over New Orleans and Charlotte. However, the Magic lost the opening two of a four-game home stand against the Portland Trail Blazers and Milwaukee Bucks. These defeats were disappointing, considering both rivals were shorthanded, especially Milwaukee, who played without Giannis Antetokounmpo and Jrue Holiday. Orlando did shoot 50.0% from the field, but the Bucks were better (59.0%) and made even 32 free throws opposite the Magic’s 14.</p>



<p>Cole Anthony led the Magic in a 134-123 loss with 23 points, five rebounds, and two steals. Franz Wagner followed him with 21 points and team-high six assists, Paolo Banchero had 20 points and four boards, Moritz Wagner chipped in 18 points, team-high eight rebounds, and two thefts, Markelle Fultz scored 16 with four dishes, while Goga Bitadze added 12 points and eight boards.</p>



<p>PF Jonathan Isaac (hamstring) is out for the season and C Wendell Carter Jr. (hip) will not play against the Jazz on Thursday.</p>



<p><strong>Trends:</strong></p>



<p><strong>Utah:</strong></p>



<ul>
<li>2-4 ATS in the last six games</li>



<li>1-5 SU in the last six games on the road</li>
</ul>



<p><strong>Orlando:</strong></p>



<ul>
<li>4-1 SU in the last five games against the Western Conference rivals</li>
</ul>



<p><strong>Utah Jazz vs. Orlando Magic Pick</strong></p>



<p>The Jazz are going through a rough period, and the Magic should take advantage of that and get a win on Thursday. Orlando is currently four wins below teams who are in the play-in, so the Magic must beat the Jazz here. Although the Jazz are better offensively as they have a top-10 offense that scores 117.0 points per game, the visitors could be without Sexton, Clarkson, and Kessler, which could be a big opportunity for the Magic. Orlando does have a stronger defense that allows 114.0 ppg opposite Utah’s 117.2 ppg.</p>



<p><strong>Pick:</strong> Take the Magic at +2.5 (-130)</p>



<p><strong>The Total</strong></p>



<p>Utah allowed 120+ points in each of the last three games and considering the Magic managed to score 123 against Milwaukee, I am backing the hosts to go 120+ here. Orlando’s defense is not bad, but the Magic did allow 121+ in five of the last eight games. The total has gone Over in seven of Orlando's last ten games against the Northwest Division rivals, while the total went Over in six of the Magic’s previous eight games played on a Thursday when at home.</p>



<p><strong>Pick:</strong> Go Over N/A points</p>

Major League Baseball was founded all the way back in 1876, but the league has obviously gone through some major changes since that time. Most of the major rules are still in place, but the way that the game is played is now much different.

There are currently 30 teams in MLB, and every team plays 162 games during the regular season. MLB games typically start at the end of March, or early April, and the World Series wraps up during the first week of November.

MLB teams are split up into leagues and divisions, but there is now more crossover games than ever before. The American League and National League now operate under the same basic rules, and that keeps things similar regardless of what league you are looking at.

Knowing the best MLB betting sites &amp; sportsbooks is also important if you plan to bet on MLB, and this article will explore that as well. By the time you are done reading this article, you should be ready to bet on baseball.
