together its fifth double-digit win streak in 93 seasons, as it continues a three-game, three-time zones, eight day stretch\u2014starting with a 71-61 victory over the Colorado State Rams as 3.5-point road favorites.\u00a0 The Aztecs are looking to win three consecutive games against ranked opponents for the first time in school history, which can\u2019t be ignored when making your NCAA basketball picks.\u00a0 San Diego State is 7-13 SU and 10-9-1 ATS as underdogs the last two-plus seasons, with the UNDER going 11-8 in that situation.<\/p>\n<p>The Aztecs are playing tremendous basketball on defense this season, as they rank second in the country in allowing just 53.3 points per game.\u00a0 San Diego State has two players averaging double figures, with senior guard Xavier Thames scoring 16.3 points a contest.\u00a0 The program is 12-15 SU in its last 27 games versus raked opponents, while it has compiled a 6-10 mark in its last 16 contests away from home in that situation.<\/p>\n<p>Kansas has won three games in a row, including a 93-83 victory over the Toledo Rockets as 15-point home favorites last time out, while going OVER the betting total in each of those contests.\u00a0 The Jayhawks are averaging 79.4 points per game and have a +10.6 scoring margin, which is important to consider when looking over the NCAA basketball odds page.\u00a0 The team\u2019s bench has outscored all but three opponents and averages 25.8 points a game.\u00a0 Kansas is 4-0 SU and 3-1 ATS as home favorites of 6.5 to 9 points the last two-plus seasons.<\/p>\n<p>The Jayhawks are led on the offensive end by freshman guard Andrew Wiggins, who is averaging 15.9 points per game and coming off a 20-point performance against the Rockets.\u00a0 Kansas has won its last 68 games against non-conference opponents at Allen Fieldhouse, while it has three players with 20 or more points in a game for the first time since Dec. 4, 2002.<\/p>\n<p>Sports bettors will likely back the Jayhawks due to their 5-1 ATS mark at home versus teams with a winning road record.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t miss out on a winning season and let the college basketball handicappers at Maddux Sports line
