5. Kansas football winds up winning by two scores

I know I predicted the game to be low-scoring in the first half, but I’d bet on Kansas pulling away late just like they did in Nevada.  BYU’s defense is respectable but not the best in the conference. Kansas has one of the best offenses in the country and has too much firepower for BYU to come out victorious.

The line is set at -9.5 Kansas, so this prediction is not bold at all. BYU is good enough to keep this game close with Kansas, but they are going to need a turnover or big play early in the game to stay in it.
