Cincinnati Preview
QB Brendan Sorsby has 655 passing yards with 8 touchdowns and 1 interception. He also has 175 yards rushing and 4 scores. WR Jeff Caldwell (172 yards, 1 TD), WR Cyrus Allen (145 yards, 3 TD), and TE Joe Royer (138 yards, 2 TD) give Sorsby plenty of downfield options. The running game has helped with Tawee Walker (151 yards, 1 TD) and Evan Pryor (100 yards).
On defense, LB Jake Golday has 28 tackles and 2 sacks. The front seven has performed well, but the unit has not posted an interception. That is a concern against a quarterback who will hurt you over the middle and down the field. K Stephen Rusnak is 3-for-3 on field goals, so the Bearcats can take points if drives stall. A key stat is that Sorsby has not been sacked.
Kansas Preview
Kansas QB Jalon Daniels has 817 passing yards with 12 touchdowns and 2 interceptions. He can also run (159 yards, 1 TD), and the ground game is steady with Leshon Williams (181 yards, 2 TD) and Daniel Hishaw Jr. (178 yards, 1 TD). The pass receiving corps is deep, with Emmanuel Henderson Jr. (221 yards, 2 TD), Cam Pickett (132 yards, 3 TD), Levi Wentz (144 yards, 1 TD), and TE DeShawn Hanika (97 yards, 3 TD).

The Jayhawks’ defense brings plenty of pressure. DE Leroy Harris III has 3.5 sacks, and the team has 12 sacks overall. LB Trey Lathan leads with 28 tackles, and S Lyrik Rawls has the lone pick. The pass rush against a Cincy line that has not been tested by this level of speed will be a big advantage for Kansas. K Laith Marjan is 5-for-5 on field goals.
Cincinnati vs Kansas Prediction
Kansas has the better red-zone threats and a stronger rush from the edges. Daniels’ dual-threat play and the home crowd point to Kansas winning in this tough matchup. Cincinnati can answer at times with Sorsby talent on offense, but Kansas will prevail. Final Score Prediction: Kansas Jayhawks win and cover ATS 37-17.
