Samford vs. Kansas CBB Prediction:

Give me Samford. I just don’t trust this Jayhawks team, especially with Kevin McCullar. Samford can really shoot the longball and Achor Achor underneath is an excellent player. The struggle for Kansas this year has been shooting from the perimeter, if they aren’t able to make some outside shots on Thursday the Bulldogs could force an early exit for the Jayhawks. Take the points with the Bulldogs.
