Going to wait for public to drive up the total prior to kick tonight, but this is shaping up to be a big play for me.
Under 48
Some angles:
- Kansas is breaking in two new starting OT's and replacing two excellent players there. Their replacements have yet to be tested facing pedestrian pass rushers vs LaTech and Florida Int'l. Selvie will live in the backfield in this game.
-USF gave up 24 last week, but that was largely due to long kickoff and punt returns. UCF only managed 12 first downs and 226 total yards vs the Bulls. I suspect the kick coverage teams will receive special attention from Jim Leavitt this week.
-USF has played 5 games against ranked foes the past two seasons. In those games the total points scored averages just 41.4ppg
-Kansas returns 9 starters from a defense that gave up just 16 ppg and gave up 5 ppg and 203 ypg in their first two (against obviously inferior competition)
-The weather should be fine and with two experienced QBs on the field, I don't expect to a significant number of turnovers leading to short fields
GL all
