Game: Missouri vs. Kansas 1:00 p.m. ET
Sport: NCAA - National Collegiate Athletic Association
Line: Kansas +5.5 -110
Prediction: Kansas +5.5 -110
Explanation: 2 Units
Kansas finally got their offense rolling against Colorado last week, gaining over 400 yards with Jason Swanson as the quarterback. After jettisoning three previous starting quarterbacks, Jayhawks HC Mark Mangino appears to have found one who can make some plays. Mangino matches up well with Gary Pinkel, beating Missou by 21 and 17 points, both times as an underdog, over the past two seasons. Kansas hasn’t played a home game since September 17th, and we’ve seen this team rebound from some dismal road showings on their home field late in the season in recent years. They are 6-2 ATS at home dating back to the start of the 2004 season.
The Jayhawks have a few other advantages in this game. Let’s start with bowl dreams. Kansas went bowling in ’03, but failed to return last year. Right now, they have three wins with four games remaining, including a road trip to Texas to face the Longhorns. If Kansas is going to go back to a bowl game this year, they’ll need to win all three of their remaining home games starting right here.
There is no comparison between these two teams defensively. The Jayhawks remain the #1 rush defense in the country, allowing just 2.8 yards per carry. Missouri gives up nearly two yards per carry more than that. The Tigers are also considerably worse against the pass than the Jayhawks. In their four Big 12 games, Missouri has allowed an average of 32 points per game, more than a touchdown more than Kansas has allowed in their Big 12 games. Against their #1 rival, playing their first home game in six weeks, with the better defense and bowl dreams still in reach, we look for the Jayhawks to have a solid shot at upsetting the Tigers for the third consecutive year.
Play Kansas +5.5 -110
