4 minArkansas vs. Kansas Same Game Parlay: +533 FanDuel March Madness First Round SGP
This might be the greatest ever coaching matchup in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. It feels like at least a Sweet 16 game. It'll be John Calipari and the 10-seeded Arkansas Razorbacks against 7-seed Kansas Jayhawks. Ultimately, both teams underachieved this year. At one point during the season, Bill Self issued a statement suggesting things would get better. On the other hand, Calipari's Razorbacks certainly improved down the stretch and earned a spot in the NCAA Tournament. Arkansas began SEC play 0-5 but finished 8-10. Meanwhile, Kansas was the consensus national No. 1 team preseason but isn't even a top-20 team currently, according to KenPom. But with all that said, Self or Calipari will make it into the Round of 32. I've made a FanDuel Same Game Parlay for tonight's fascinating NCAA Tournament matchup between the Arkansas Razorbacks and Kansas Jayhawks.

FanDuel Same Game Parlay - Arkansas vs. Kansas
Leg 1: Arkansas +4.5 (-105)
The Arkansas Razorbacks needed time to adjust under John Calipari. They lost some really bad games earlier this season. However, Arkansas finished the season with five wins in its last seven games, including victories over Missouri, Texas, Vanderbilt, and Ole Miss. Arkansas also lost to Auburn by just seven points and failed to beat Texas A&M by only eight. With elite defense and timely shot-making around the rim, Arkansas should keep this game tight.
Leg 2: Under 145.5 (-112)
Kansas and Arkansas are both top-18 defenses in the country according to KenPom. Kansas has limited teams to a 46.2% effective field goal percentage. The Jayhawks have also allowed only 27.5% of offensive rebounds and rarely gives teams a chance at the foul line. On the other hand, Arkansas has allowed only a 48.3% effective field goal percentage. Opponents have shot just 31.9% from three and 48.5% against the Razorbacks this season. Like Kansas, Arkansas has done well limiting second chances and foul shots this season.
Leg 3: Johnell Davis Under 14.5 Points (-125)
Johnell Davis might have experience in the NCAA Tournament. But he's added at least 15 points in just three of his last ten games. He's also in line to face a Kansas defense that ranks 76th in all of college basketball in points allowed to guards this season. Guards rarely get to the foul line against Kansas. They've also made below five field goals per game this season, while shooting just 33.47% from the floor. Arkansas can win this game but it won't be because of Davis.
