Not that we should be surprised. Their opener against South Carolina State was nothing more than a tune-up, so winning 41-10 was about what everyone expected.<\/p>\n<p>We knew entering the season that Georgia Tech was set to field a powerhouse offense, as it produced 422 yards and 34 points per contest last year. More importantly, the Yellow Jackets were monster rushers last year, averaging an NCAA-best 295 yards per game (not a misprint). Even with Jonathan Dwyer gone, they were expected to continue that dominance.<\/p>\n<p>Last week confirmed those expectations; Georgia Tech rolled up 372 rushing yards against South Carolina State. However, as potent as the Yellow Jackets are, they have a very clear weakness. If opponents can stop their running game, Georgia Tech\u2019s passing game is underused and somewhat unproven.<\/p>\n<p>Last week, for example, quarterback Josh Nesbitt did his usual thing, rushing for 130 yards and three touchdowns on 16 carries. However, he threw just six passes and completed\u00a0<em>one! <\/em>If Kansas can slow down Georgia Tech\u2019s running game at all, it has a shot to beat the spread.  [soliloquy id=&#8221;82219&#8243;]<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kansas Jayhawks (0-1)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Kansas was nothing short of pitiful in its opener last week. The Jayhawks were expected to cruise past North Dakota last week but lost 6-3, getting their only points in the first quarter and amassing just 293 yards of total offense.<\/p>\n<p>Kansas\u2019 quarterbacking was a nightmare last week, partly because its offensive line played so poorly. Kale Pick and Jordan Webb each played a half under center and neither was effective. The lone bright spot for Kansas last week was Daymond Patterson, who had 129 all-purpose yards.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Georgia Tech at KU Gambling Trends:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Georgia Tech is 10-2 SU in its last 12 games<br \/>\nThe total has gone OVER in 4 of Georgia Tech&#8217;s last 6 games on the road<br \/>\nKansas is 18-7 SU in its last 25 games at home<br \/>\nKansas is 1-4 SU in its last 5 games at home<br \/>\nKansas is 0-5 SU in its last 5 games<br \/>\nGeorgia Tech is 5-0 SU in its last 5 games on the road<\/p>\n<p><strong>The pick:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t be fooled by Kansas allowing only six points last week. It was North Dakota. The Jayhawks allowed almost 400 yards per game on defense last year, including 140 rushing yards. Even though they\u2019re a bit more experienced this season, they\u2019re in deep, deep trouble against Georgia Tech this week.<\/p>\n<p>If you ask me, the 13-point spread is a steal. I expect the Yellow Jackets to cover it by a mile. Sure, their one-dimensional offensive tendencies could catch up to them eventually, but not against a team like Kansas.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Georgia Tech vs Kansas prediction: Georgia Tech 38, Kansas 7<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>CHECK OUT OUR\u00a0<a href=\"\/forums\/college-football-betting\/\"><strong>College football betting forums<\/strong><\/a> today!
