A concerning statistic:  Kansas has played just four conference games above
expectation and seven below expectation.  One of those four good games was
the conference season opener in Stillwater, typically a tough place for Kansas
to play, so there is some hope that the Jayhawks can put together another
above-expectation performance.  Having gotten Clemence back may help.  Either
Martin's knee needs to recover, or Yesefu needs to provide consistent help off
the bench, or Pettiford needs to provide consistent help off the bench, because
if our starting guards play 38 or 39 minutes, tired legs toward the end of games
will likely turn into more missed charities, and those can be crucial in close
games.

The various prognosticators are all picking Kansas to win.  Dunkel is the
pessimist at just a 5.5 point margin.  Colley's ratings imply a 16.7 point
margin, which is the most optimistic.  Most are in the 10 to 11 point range,
with common opponents approaching 12 points.

None of the trend or mental toughness values are statistically significant,
but taken at face value (the Cowboys have a slightly positive trend), the
margin for Kansas drops to 9.4 points.

The two teams average 142 total points, which is exactly what Dunkel is
assuming, while Vegas has it at 144 points.
