3. Kansas at Houston
POINT TOTAL 57.5
ATS PICK Over
Are we supposed to believe Kansas is good at college football now?
All it did was start the season scoring 56 against Tennessee Tech, and followed that up with a 55-42 win at West Virginia.
And we’re supposed to believe that the team that hung up 50+ over the last two weeks can’t at least help the cause to get past 57.5?
Granted, it took overtimes for Houston and UTSA to get to 72 points and the game against Texas Tech to get to 63, but it got there.
Kansas is getting great balance out of its offense, the Cougars haven’t come close to stopping the pass so far, and now you’re asking for both sides to push into the low 30s after that hasn’t been a problem for either side so far.
Sort of like taking the under on Iowa until we know better, 57.5 just isn’t a big lift for two offense scoring as well as they are.
Speaking of staying on the ride for a bit too long …
