Fort Worth Bowl Prediction

This game pits Houston against Kansas. All year long, people have been knocking the Big12, particularly the Big 12 North. I am one of these people. The Big 12 is just plain sad. Either way, I think the Jayhawks can defeat Houston. Kansas' defense has been solid all year, but the offense has been horrid. Houston's offense is the money-maker, but it wouldn't be anything to brag about if they played in a tougher conference. Is Houston good enough to win this game? Of course they are. However, if this game was played ten times, Kansas wins eight or nine of them. Houston's defense allowed 14 points againts lowly Tulane and 16 to Mississippi State. Fourteen points should be enough for the Kansas defense. If the Jayhawks continue to stuff the run (as they've been known to do), it will make life difficult for Houston QB Kevin Kolb. Kansas wins in an ugly game. Kansas 16 - Houston 10.
