.Kansas + 10 (-110)
The Jayhawks get double-digits in this years addition of the Sunflower Showdown mainly due to the uncertainty of KU QB Jason Bean who is considered a true game-time decision. While I am counting on him to go, I still think the solid Kansas run game is going to be able to keep them in it.
Kansas:
Running on 59.55% plays (ranked 16th)
5 yds/rush (ranked 18th)
194 rush/yds game (ranked 16th)
*Kansas St Defense giving up 4.2 yds/rush (ranked 67th)*
While the Wildcats defense has been solid this season it has not traveled well, with opponents averaging 8.5 more points & 80 more yards per game away from Manhattan:
Kansas St DEFENSE (AWAY)-
OPP Pts/game - 28.25
OPP Yds/game - 450
From the same perspective, the Jayhawks offense has been very good at home:
Kansas OFFENSE (HOME) -
Pts/game - 37
Yds/game - 448
If you like trends, here are a few for this play:
Kansas St 1-2-1 ATS as AWAY TEAM,
Kansas St 0-2 ATS as AWAY FAVORITE
Kansas 3-1 ATS as UNDERDOG
Kansas 2-0 ATS as HOME UNDERDOG
Kansas 2-0 ATS FOLLOWING LOSS
The only time the Jayhawks have lost by double-digits this season was to Texas (in Austin) with a healthy Quinn Ewers. I don't see it happening again at home against an in-state rival despite the matchups history.
Go Jayhawks!
