Oklahoma at Kansas over 158.5 points: $440 to win $400

I feel like Kansas is the right side in this game between the Associated Press No. 1 (Kansas) and the USA Today Coaches Poll No. 1 (Oklahoma), but that’s a lot of points to lay as the line has gotten as big as Kansas minus-8 in some shops today.

The latest numbers have the Jayhawks favored by 7 or 7.5, and instead of going with that, I’m looking at the total between two of the highest scoring teams in the country. If this game is close, then I have the added benefit of a possible overtime period, but I don’t think we’ll need more than regulation to break the 160-point barrier tonight.

Current Standings (as of July 1): Brewer (29-24, $10,470), Bern (19-28, $6,035), Keefer (22-38-2, $3,861)
