WVU at Kansas 9/21/19 - College Football Picks & Predictions

The West Virginia Mountaineers (2 - 1, 0 - 0 CONF) are on the road this week as they square off against the hometown Kansas Jayhawks (2 - 1, 0 - 0 CONF).

Kansas will be looking to build off of a nice win over Boston College. West Virginia comes into this game fresh off of a blow out win over NC State. Kansas will be hosting this game at the Memorial Stadium in Lawrence, KS.

The West Virginia Mountaineers are taking the field with a team that is scoring just 24 PPG on offense this season. West Virginia has been limited on offense thanks to their inability to establish a ground game. West Virginia is surrendering 26 PPG to opposing teams on defense so far this season. For West Virginia to get a win, QB Austin Kendall (669 yards, 6 TDs) needs to have another huge night at the office.

The Kansas Jayhawks are taking the field with a well-rounded team. Kansas is scoring 26 PPG on offense this season while surrendering just 18 PPG to opposing teams on defense. Kansas is led by QB Carter Stanley (586 yards, 5 TDs) and he will be our player to highlight in this game. Kansas has the ability to grind on the ground when necessary thanks to running back Khalil Herbert (36/357/2TDs).

The Mountaineers are a team that has been able to score 24 points a game, but has given up 26 points a game. The Jayhwaks offense is doing decent on the year and the defense has given up 18 points. Look for the Jayhawks to score quite well in this game and bring home a win here. We like Kansas to hold off West Virginia in this game. Final Score Prediction, Kansas Jayhawks win in upset but grab the points just in case 24-23.
