Keep reading to get our prediction for Kansas vs BYU from Provo, UT.

Kansas Looks For Second Straight Upset Win

The Kansas Jayhawks have won two of their last three games to get to 3-6 overall this season and 2-4 in the Big 12. Their last win was a memorable one, as they upset the Iowa State Cyclones at home, putting up 45 points against a Cyclones team that had just one loss prior to that contest. This week, the Kansas offense will once again look to put up a huge offensive number to help them upset the currently undefeated BYU Cougars.

BYU Looking to Stay Undefeated

BYU has won nine straight games to start its season, including six straight in Big 12 play. That has put them in sixth in the latest college football rankings. But BYU was nearly upset by Utah in their last game, barely squeaking out a win on the road in the Holy War. This week, BYU returns home and will hope that and not playing in an emotionally-charged rivalry game will help them to keep their unbeaten record in tact.

Kansas vs BYU Betting Pick

We are going to lay the points with the BYU Cougars in this week’s Kansas vs BYU contest. While BYU looked shaky last week, we attribute that to playing in a rivalry game more than anything else. Look for the Cougars to bounce back and look like a top-10 team this week while remaining the lone undefeated team in Big 12 play.
