Because of the weather, I'm worried about that BC/FSU game. Everybody seems to like Kansas (because of the line movement), but for some reason I think they might trip up here a little. I know Nebraska is terrible, but I just can't believe in Kansas.

BC has the #2 rush defense in the country. 55.1 ypg. Even if the weather becomes an issue BC can hold their own.

Kansas is that good. Nebraska will no offensive production because Kansas's defense is stifling. #5 nationally in defense, #11 nationally in offense.

All true, but against pretty weak opponents. I know you will say Nebraska is just another in the line of weak opponents, but I believe they have more talent than any team Kansas has played so far. Talent can keep you close in a game.

Colorado, Kansas State, and A&M aren't THAT weak. Kansas also manhandled A&M last week. A&M couldn't get anything going last week, but that doesn't say much.

Kansas got started on their role this year by scheduling NOBODY the first four weeks. Interesting.

Ok I'll give you A&M is that bad, but Kansas State and Colorado beat UT and OU, though beating UT this year isn't all that special.
