KANSAS (-2.5)  20   Rutgers  18

Kansas got a rare victory last week with their 31-7 road win at Central Michigan and my Best Bet under on that game cashed easily. Part of my reasoning for that under play is the fact that Kansas has a horrible offense and a pretty solid defense this season. The same can be said for Rutgers, who is starting a freshman quarterback that didn’t even start for his high school team as a senior last season (he sat behind Minnesota’s current freshman starter) and completed just 52% of his high school passes. Gaining just 2.2 yards per play against Ohio State can be excused but the Scarlet Knights’ 5.6 yppl at home against Texas State in week 1 is a horrible offensive showing given how bad Texas State’s defense is (1.3 yppl worse than average). Rutgers’ defense isn’t too bad, however, and this should be a low scoring game between two teams hungry for a victory and with advantages on defense. I like the under.
