The West Virginia Mountaineers and Kansas Jayhawks face off on Saturday in a Big 12 college football showdown at KU Memorial Stadium. When these two teams faced off in 2020 it was West Virginia that won 38-17. 

West Virginia comes into this game with a 5-6 record overall and with a win they can make a bowl game. In the last game against Texas, the offense put up 31 points and that was enough to come away with the victory. Virginia Virginia is averaging 26.2 points while their defense is giving up 24 points per game. Under center for West Virginia is Jarret Doege who has thrown for 2,738 yards, 16 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions. Running back Leddie Brown has rushed for 909 yards, and 12 touchdowns. 

On the other side of this matchup is the Kansas Jayhawks who sit with a 2-9 record overall but they have been playing better as of late. Two games ago, Kansas beat Texas, and in the last game they almost pulled it out against TCU. Kansas is averaging 20.1 points while their defense is giving up 42.9 points. One of the big changes for Kansas has been the play of quarterback  Jalon Daniels who is the future of this team. In the last game he threw for 255 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception. On the season he has thrown for 611 yards six touchdowns, and one interception. 

West Virginia is 2-5 against the spread in their last seven road games. Kansas is 8-2 against the spread in their last ten games against teams with a losing record. The road team is 5-2 against the spread in the last seven meetings. The over is 4-1 in the last five meetings. 

Back the Jayhawks can be scary, but they are the play in this game. Daniels is going to have a big game against the West Virginia defense, and it wouldn’t be shocking if the Jayhawks win this game outright. Back Kansas against the spread. I do expect a ton of offensive success for both teams and the over will also cash with ease. 

Shane’s Pick Kansas +15.5
