This Saturday’s matchup between Tulane and Kansas State shows a clear favorite. Kansas State is 2-0, while Tulane comes in at 1-1. The Wildcats are favored by 20.5 points at home, with a close juice of -108. This means you’d need to bet $108 to win $100 on Kansas State covering the spread. On the flip side, Tulane is a big underdog at +20.5 with -112 odds, meaning a $112 bet wins $100 if Tulane keeps the game within 20 points or wins outright.
Looking at the moneyline, the disparity is even sharper. Kansas State is priced at -1600, so a $1600 bet would only net $100 if they win. Tulane is a massive underdog at +900, paying $900 on a $100 wager if they pull off the upset. These odds suggest the sportsbook sees Kansas State as a strong favorite, with a low chance for Tulane to keep it close or win.
The total points line is set at 49.5, with the under slightly favored at -108 compared to -112 for the over. This suggests a modest expectation for a moderately scoring game, possibly influenced by Kansas State’s defense or Tulane’s offense.
In short, Kansas State is the dominant pick, but the large spread makes the bet on Tulane tempting for those who expect a closer game. The total points line implies a balanced scoring outlook. Consider your risk tolerance before jumping on the big spread or moneyline.
