| Starters and Key Players returning for the 2009 season: |
|
|
 | KANSAS: Head Coach: Mark Mangino, 8th year / 2008 Record: 8-5 SU, 7-5 ATS / Facility: Memorial Field
Offense: One-Back Set - Starters Returning: 8 / Defense: 4-3 - Starters Returning: 7
2009 Beginning Season StatFox Power Rating: 52 (#24 of 120)
2009 Schedule Strength: 44.83 (#23 of 120)
2009 OUTLOOK: Head coach Mark Mangino brought the Jayhawks to the pinnacle two years ago with a 12-1 mark and a berth in the Orange Bowl. Last year, though, although Kansas slipped to 8-5, it still earned another bowl berth (victory over Minnesota at the Insight Bowl) and showed that Mangino has the makings of a consistent winning program. The Jayhawks are no longer a surprise team, but with everybody focusing on Oklahoma, Texas and even Oklahoma State, in the Big 12, Kansas is a strong sleeper candidate to watch out for.
OFFENSE: Plain and simple, this team is loaded on offense. Quarterback Todd Reesing heads into the season as the fourth-leading passer in the country after throwing for 3,888 yards. He has a 20-6 record as a starter, while guiding Kansas to back-to-back bowl victories. Reesing will be throwing to what is arguably the best wide receiving tandem in the country in Dezmon Briscoe and Kerry Meier. Briscoe heads into the season as the nation’s third-leading returning receiver by receiving yards (108.2 per game). In just two seasons he already ranks second in school history with 135 career receptions, is fourth in yards with 1,903 and owns the school mark for career touchdowns with 22. Meier is the nation’s second-leading returning receiver by receptions (7.5 per game). The line is solid, to say the least. Jeremiah Hatch, once a starter at right tackle, took over the left tackle duties and returns, as do fellow linemen Adrian Mayes and Jeff Spikes, who started the last nine games at right tackle. The ground game could be the team’s Achilles’ heel if defenses are allowed to focus primarily on Reesing. Jake Sharp became a reliable runner and receiver out of the backfield, but averaged only 66 yards per game on the ground. Improvement is a must to balance out the offense.
DEFENSE: The biggest question on the defensive side of the ball will be how to replace all three starting linebackers. The trio of James Holt (2008 All-Big 12 second team), Joe Mortensen (2007 All-Big 12 second team) and Mike Rivera (three-time All-Big 12 honorable mention) started a combined 103 games and recorded 821 tackles. However, seven starters return to a unit which ranked fourth in the league in rushing defense and third in pass-efficiency defense. Among the returnees are All-Big 12 firstteam selection Darrell Stuckey. The safety had a tremendous junior season, registering 98 tackles and picking off five passes. Stuckey’s leadership was invaluable as the Jayhawks revamped their secondary in the last half of the year. The front four is paced by tackle Caleb Blakesley and end Jake Laptad, who both earned All-Big 12 honorablemention accolades.
PREDICTION: We say here first Kansas starts 6-0—non-conference wins over Northern Colorado, UTEP, Duke and Southern Miss, and conference-opening victories over Iowa State and at Colorado—are likely. Then things become a little hairy with games against Oklahoma and Texas Tech. If the Jayhawks could sneak a win in one of those games, they’d be looking at a one- or two-loss conference season. | | TEXAS: Head Coach: Mack Brown, 12th year / 2008 Record: 12-1 SU, 9-4 ATS / Facility: Memorial Stadium
Offense: Multiple - Starters Returning: 8 / Defense: Multiple - Starters Returning: 6
2009 Beginning Season StatFox Power Rating: 66 (#4 of 120)
2009 Schedule Strength: 44.83 (#24 of 120)
2009 OUTLOOK: Ah, what could have been. Now Mack Brown knows what Joe Paterno feels like. Paterno has had three unbeaten teams during his illustrious career at Penn State that didn’t even sniff a national championship, thanks to the voters. Well, the more things change, the more they stay the same—voters muscled Texas out of the Big 12 Conference and, likely, the national championship game by moving Oklahoma ahead of the Longhorns in the polls late in the season, even though Texas beat the Sooners by 10 points. Texas’ only loss was a literal last-second defeat on the road to Texas Tech. Needless to say, the Longhorns will be playing with a chip on their collective shoulders this season.
OFFENSE: Loaded. Quarterback Colt McCoy was the Heisman Trophy runner-up to Oklahoma’s Sam Bradford. The senior threw for 3,859 yards, 34 touchdowns and eight interceptions. McCoy probably has more mobility than Bradford, as evidenced by his 561 yards rushing last year and he’s a heady, steady leader. Leading wide receiver Quan Cosby (teamleading 92 receptions) is gone, but McCoy’s favorite target, Jordan Shipley, got a sixth year of eligibility and he’s back. Last season Shipley caught 89 passes for 1,060 yards and 11 touchdowns. Running backs Fozzy Whittaker, Cody Johnson and Vondrell McGee all return. The tailback-by-committee approach worked fairly well, with a combined 1,300 yards rushing and 20 touchdowns. As for the offensive line, it’s the same old story. As we said last season, year in, year out, whether they go into the season with multiple returning starters or if they have to rebuild, the Longhorns produce one of the top lines in all of college football. Fortunately for Brown, this year’s version is losing just one starter. One tiny problem
DEFENSE: Dramatic improvement. Two years ago, the Longhorns gave up 25.2 points per game and an average of 277 yards passing, which is why Brown brought in defensive coordinator Will Muschamp from Auburn. Under Muschamp, Texas gave up 18.8 points per game and 259 yards passing. A year ago, the problem was a young secondary. This year, the issue will be how to replace four starters up front, including pass-rushing fiend Brian Orakpo, who was selected in the first round with the 13th overall pick by the Washington Redskins. Safeties Nolan Brewster and Earl Thomas drastically improved, with Thomas picking off McCoy in the spring game. Cornerbacks Aaron Williams and Chykie Brown are solid, and defensive backs Curtis Brown and Deon Beasley give this group great depth. Expect Muschamp to blitz far more in 2009 now that he has an experienced secondary. Muschamp favors the 4-2-5 scheme so don’t be surprised to see three safeties in there at times. Up front, Lamarr Houston is the only returner. He’ll shuffle from end to nose tackle depending on the emergence of backup tackle Ben Alexander. Senior Sergio Kindle (53 tackles, 14 for loss, 10 sacks) will be one of the top linebackers in the country.
PREDICTION: The non-conference slate is fairly easy so Texas’ season will come down to the annual Red River Shootout with Oklahoma. Unfortunately, as the Longhorns saw last year, not even a victory guarantees conference titles. Still, Texas should be able to survive trips to Missouri and Texas A&M. The one key game that looms, besides Oklahoma, is the trip to Oklahoma State. |

The Betting Trends from Sportsbook show what percentage of bets are on each side of the pointspread or total. The results can be especially valuable in high profile games. This data can be used to profit from. When given the choice, most professional bettors would choose to be on the side of the "house", or that opposite of the betting public. Alternatively, others believe in the theory that there is "strength in numbers". Neither belief is foolproof, but if you follow these Betting Trends for long enough, you’ll surely form your own opinion. |

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ PA SPORTSTICKER COLLEGE FOOTBALL PREVIEW (KANSAS-TEXAS) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*Kansas-Texas Preview* ======================
By SANTOSH VENKATARAMAN STATS Senior Writer
Kansas (5-5) at No. 3 Texas (10-0), 8:00 p.m. EDT
Colt McCoy is poised to become the all-time winningest quarterback in NCAA history with Texas set to book a trip to the Big 12 championship as it faces a team that appears to be in turmoil.
McCoy and the third-ranked Longhorns can clinch the South Division in his final home game Saturday night when they meet Kansas, which has lost five straight and is conducting an internal investigation involving coach Mark Mangino.
Last week, Texas (10-0, 6-0) built a 40-point halftime lead and cruised to a 47-14 victory over Baylor. McCoy completed 23 of 34 passes for 181 yards and two touchdowns and sat out most of the second half.
The Longhorns star tied former Georgia quarterback David Greene's record of 42 victories as a starter. McCoy can break it in his final game at Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium and put Texas into the Big 12 championship Dec. 5 at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington.
"We win this game we clinch the South," McCoy said. "It's a big game, so you can't let your emotions get too high, you have to treat it like another game. After the game you can think about it a little bit. Twenty years from now, you can look back and really appreciate what has gone on."
McCoy remains the nation's most accurate passer at 72.4 percent as he completes a steady season in which his numbers won't reach last year's totals of 2,628 yards and 34 touchdowns when he was the Heisman Trophy runner-up to good friend Sam Bradford of Oklahoma. That's not a concern for the Longhorns as they close in on a BCS title game berth.
"I did not realize that he is the only quarterback to lead his team to 10-plus wins each of the four years, and that again is a phenomenal stat when you start looking at what he's done," coach Mack Brown said. "The seniors and Colt have 42 wins."
Texas isn't expected to face much of a challenge from a struggling Kansas team that has lost all seven Big 12 meetings with the Longhorns. The Jayhawks (5-5, 1-5) fell 35-7 at home to Texas last year as McCoy was 24 of 34 for 255 yards and two touchdowns.
Kansas would like the storyline of this visit to Austin to center around Big 12 passing leader Todd Reesing's return to his hometown, but the situation surrounding Mangino has overshadowed that.
Athletic director Lew Perkins issued a brief statement Tuesday confirming the review of the eighth-year coach. Perkins met with the entire team Monday night and Mangino, the national coach of the year two seasons ago, was not present.
Mangino said he met with Perkins for "10 or 15 minutes" on Tuesday and would not disclose details. Kansas has not won since its 5-0 start.
"You lose a few games in a row, those type of things surface. It's not uncommon," Mangino said. "I don't take it lightly, but I'm focused on Texas and I'm very comfortable the way we manage and run the football program here. This is what comes when things aren't going well. You're going to find disgruntled people."
The coach got a vote of confidence from Reesing, who has thrown five touchdowns during the skid after having 13 over the unbeaten start.
"There's been certain things that have been said but I don't really want to focus on that right now," Reesing said. "It is what it is. It's happening. It has nothing to do with playing Texas so I don't really see the relevancy for me talking about that."
Reesing holds nearly every Kansas passing record as he plays for the first time in Austin, where he was a star at Lake Travis High School and was Central Texas player of the year as a senior. Reesing was not recruited by Texas, and Brown admitted two years ago that "anyone who did not recruit him made a mistake."
The Longhorns coach is full of admiration for the player he didn't go after.
"Todd Reesing is a great story," Brown said. "He did a tremendous job at Lake Travis. We were all able to watch him for many years and admire what he's done. He's been for Kansas what Colt's been for us. He's accurate, he's got a quick release, they have some great receivers, and they can move the ball."
Reesing could be in for a difficult night against the nation's top-ranked defense, which is allowing 232.3 yards per game. He went 25 of 50 with one touchdown last season against Texas.
Game Notes: A combination of factors has led to a disappointing campaign for Kansas. A less talented squad, especially on defense, coupled with having to play the stronger group from the Big 12 South, has led to 1-5 & 0-6 ATS mark in the Big 12. The Jayhawks are 1-5 ATS vs. Top 10 teams. Texas has three more games to win before presumed date with SEC champion for the national championship and the Longhorns 13-3 ATS in home finales. Colt McCoy could win the Heisman with three outstanding performances. Kansas hasn’t beaten Texas since 1938, though only seven games have been played with the Jayhawks 0-7 and 1-6 ATS. |
