For some reason, the Kansas Athletic Director has a thing for fat coaches. At least the first fat coach they had was pretty good. The one they have now, Charlie Weis, is terrible. In a recent press conference, Weis called his team a pile of crap. I guess he hasn’t looked in the mirror lately.
First of all, to cover a 4 ½ point spread, by definition you have to win the game – against an FBS opponent. This is something that Kansas has not done this year. Well, they did barely beat SE Missouri State by the score of 34-26. By the way, SE Missouri State is ranked lower than Penn. In their only game against a real opponent, Duke, Kansas lost 41-3. It’s hard to cover 4 ½ points when you only score 3 against Duke (Duke gave up 17 points to Troy and 13 points to Elon)…says a lot about the offensive mastermind of Charlie Weis. Maybe he should put down that hamburger and pick up a playbook?
On the other hand, Central Michigan has been scrappy as all get out. In the opening game, they beat a Chattanooga team, which has a similar power ranking to Kansas, by the score of 20-16. They followed that up with a convincing victory over Purdue (another team with a comparable rating to Kansas) by the score of 38-17.
In order for Kansas to cover this spread, they need to beat CMU. Well, 25 of the 33 computers which follow college football have Central Michigan ranked higher than Kansas. I’ll take those odds…and the points! Central Michigan as the live dog - $800.
