UNLV Rebels vs Kansas Jayhawks Prediction & Picks - NCAA
by Lou Aguila | in NCAA Picks
Looking to bounce back from their Week 2 loss to Illinois, the Kansas Jayhawks will test the undefeated UNLV Rebels at Children Mercy Park in Kansas City, Kansas. The Jayhawks took a punch in the gut after absorbing a big loss to Illinois on Week 2. Kansas held the lead entering the 4th quarter but they let the win slip away as the Fighting Illini scored 10 unanswered points in the payoff period to secure the comeback win. Quarterback Jalon Daniels passed for 141 yards with two touchdowns and three interceptions while running back Devin Neal rushed for 101 yards. Meanwhile, the UNLV Rebels are off to a strong start after posting two emphatic wins over Houston 27-7 and Utah Tech 72-14. Quarterback Matthew Sluka has emerged as the team’s leading in passing yards (232 yards) and rushing yards (129) after week 2, while receiver Ricky White III has already completed three TD passes this season.

Our UNLV Rebels vs Kansas Jayhawks Prediction
Kansas is the overwhelming favorite to win over UNLV, according to the 73,5 percent win probability handed to them by ESPN Match predictor. Kansas may have choked away the win last week, but I expect head coach Lance Leipold to have his boys more prepared for battle against UNLV. The Jayhawks are not in the top 25 this week; however, they understand that a massive win over the Rebels could catapult them back to the rankings. Will Kansas beat the 7.5-point spread? I am sure they will figure out how to win by double-digit margins in this match, especially if Jalon Daniels can avoid committing three interceptions and pass the ball better than the 56 percent completion he posted against Illinois. Our betting prediction for Kansas Jayhawks vs. UNLV Rebels: Back Kansas to cover -7.5 point spread, -108, at FanDuel.
