5 questions for West Virginia-Kansas: Setting up ‘Gold Rush’ game

COMMENTARY

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — A fistful of questions to ponder as No. 9 West Virginia (4-0, 2-0) entertains Kansas (2-3, 0-2) at Milan Puskar Stadium:

Should you bet on another blowout?

On their three trips to Morgantown during the Big 12 era, Kansas has been outscored 140-45. (Even looking back to that Nov. 8, 1941, meeting at Old Mountaineer Field won’t help the visitors’ psyche: They lost that one 21-0 with WVU”s Ike Martin throwing a touchdown and making an interception.)

This week’s betting line expanded by five points, making West Virginia favored by 29.
