Kansas vs California Baptist: Upset Alert?

0:00On March 20th, tonight in the round of 64 of March Madness, Kansas takes on California Baptist at Vieja Serena. The Lances are making their first-ever NCAA tournament appearance after just eight years at the Division I level. They'll tip off after St. John's Battles, Northern Iowa, with the winners meeting again on Sunday. California Baptist has come a long way under head coach Rick Croy, who turned them into a top Western Athletic Conference team. Their leader is five-foot-ten-point guard Dominique Daniels Jr., the conference player of the year and a scoring machine from Compton. He's been time at Junior College before shining for three seasons with the Lances. Meanwhile, Kansas enters as massive betting favorites, with a 14.5 spread and minus 14.50 money line. The J-Hawks have hit rough patches lately, bowing out in the first round last year. The third such early exit for Coach Bill's self. Still, they aim for a deeper run this time around. Both squads bring elite defenses to the floor, setting up a gritty battle.

1:01Analysts aren't picking an upset, but the Lances want to prove everyone wrong and grab their first tournament victory. Expect fireworks either way, as this clash highlights the tournament's unpredictability and gives California Baptist a shot at history.
