Michigan State vs. Kansas State Odds, Pick | Sweet 16 Betting Prediction (Thursday, March 23)

Michigan State vs. Kansas State Odds

The Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament is on, and the first game on the docket will be live from Madison Square Garden on Thursday night.

My colleague Darren Rovell wrote a piece earlier today highlighting his opinion that the market is mispricing Kansas State's moneyline by leaning too heavily on recency bias and overestimating Michigan State's abilities.

For massive games like the ones in the Sweet 16, the market is typically at equilibrium, with millions of bettors making trades across all sportsbooks around the world.

But Action Network's proprietary betting models do think there's a betting edge for this contest.

Does it fade Rovell? Or is he right?

Our betting algorithms consider dozens of data points for every college basketball game, integrating stylistic differences, injuries, rest, coaching, form and more. The algorithms integrate qualitative factors, too.

Those betting models then generate a fair value price for every mainline for every NCAA Tournament game.

For Michigan State vs. Kansas State, one line differs substantially from the market available price.
