Kansas Jayhawks vs UNLV Rebels Betting Preview
The Kansas Jayhawks have a ton to look forward to under head coach Lance Leopold. The talent is strong at Kansas, and they appear to be adding talent to the mix. The most talented of them all is quarterback Jalon Daniels. He is questionable in this game due to a back injury. Daniels has not played since September 23rd.
In his place has been Jason Bean. Bean was great in the win at Cincinnati, and had a good season behind center. In the win over the Bearcats, he threw for 250 yards and two touchdowns. Bean on the season settled in at more than 1,680 yards and 12 touchdowns.
The offense also goes through the running back combination of Devin Neal and Daniel Hinshaw. Neal led the team with 15 touchdowns, while Hinshaw added nearly 600 yards and 8 more on the ground. Kansas ranked 28th in all of College Football in scoring, as they scored 33.6 points per game.
For the Rebels, it was a nice run of winning games until their season finale loss to San Jose State. Somehow, they got in under the three-way tiebreaker rules and lost in the title game to Boise State. In those two losses, the Rebels allowed teams to score 41.5 points per game. On the season, UNLV allowed 27 per game.
Offensively, the Rebels are strong on the ground. UNLV rushed for more than 179 yards per game on the season. The offense starts with Vincent Davis, who carried the football 132 times this season. But, Jai’Den Thomas led the team with 12 touchdowns. He got just 1 carry in the loss to Boise State.
The Rebels started the season with a win over Bryant, before getting a chance to battle Michigan on the road. They fell in that game 35-7.
