Game Analysis
TEXAS TECH (-27 ½) 52 Kansas 26
Kansas is better this season than they’ve been in recent years and the Jayhawks have a good pass defense that allowed just 4.8 yards per pass play to Ohio and Memphis, who both have decent pass attacks. Kansas still can’t stop the run, as they allowed an average of 303 yards at 6.6 yards per rushing play in those two games against FBS opponents, but Texas Tech runs a pass heavy attack that plays into the strength of the Jayhawks’ defense. The Red Raiders will surely run more than they usually do but overall their offense will be relatively less effective than normal.
The Kansas offense, while still bad, has shown signs of improvement with the 3 quarterbacks combining for 67% completions. Texas Tech has been one of the worst defensive teams in the nation so far, as the Red Raiders have allowed an average of 56.5 points on 612 yards at 7.8 yards per play to the two FBS teams they’ve faced (Arizona State and Louisiana Tech). Kansas should be able to score a decent number of points and I’ll lean with the Jayhawks to stay within the big number.
