Kansas (1-0) picked up a nice opening win over Missouri State, pulling away late for a 48-17 final. While the Jayhawks struggled some early in this game, they were able to ultimately take care of business and win by a good enough margin. Illinois (1-0) struggled heavily with Toledo in their opening game, requiring a field goal in the last few seconds to secure a 30-28 win. I think these two programs are trending in opposite directions and I like Kansas to secure a quality non-conference victory.
35-27 Kansas
