Only once before have the Rebels reached 10 wins, so Odom has a chance to make history and be named MWC Coach of the Year. There are some similarities between these two teams in that they both have terrific coaching staffs and they both have visually appealing and effective offenses. Kansas ranks fifth in EPA per play and 10th in success rate. It should have no issue gashing a UNLV defense that checks in at 103rd in EPA per play and gives up a ton of chunk yardage plays, ranking 111th in explosiveness. Kansas is elite both on the ground (12th in EPA per rush) and through the air (second in EPA per pass). The Jayhawks will expose UNLV’s main weaknesses — the secondary (123rd in EPA per pass) and the defensive front (119th in stuff rate compared to 17th for Kansas on offense, 107th in front seven havoc compared to 35th for Kansas).

Puni, Ford, and Cabeldue were all full-time starters up front this season and their presence will be paramount. As for the UNLV Rebels, rumors were swirling about quarterback Jordan Maiava earlier this month but those have since died down. Given the lack of recent chatter, the current expectation is that he will play. Safety Cameren Jenkins and Courtney Reese are the names to know in the portal, and the defensive back end could be hindered if Jett Elad doesn’t return from injury after missing the MWC title game. Kansas ranks 103rd in third-down defense this year (42. 3% third-down percentage allowed), but has been thriving on offense, ranking 11th-best in the FBS with a 48. 1% third-down percentage. The Jayhawks have forced 16 total turnovers (75th in the FBS) this season and have turned it over 14 times (32nd in the FBS) for a turnover margin of +2, 48th-ranked in college football. Kansas 2023 Key Players Name Position Stats Devin Neal RB 1, 209 YDS / 15 TD / 100. 8 YPG / 6. 6 YPC24 REC / 214 REC YDS / 1 REC TD / 17. The Jayhawks don’t stonewall rushing attacks (125th in stuff rate) unless they sell out for out, which is a problem as UNLV is second nationally with 37 rushing touchdowns and has an effective enough passing attack to beat the Jawhawks with star receiver Ricky White if there are too many bodies in the box and not back deep.

Next, let’s take a look a closer look at both teams’ respective coaching staffs and team build. The Jayhawks went 2-10 in Lance Leipold’s first season in 2021. To little surprise — Leipold has won at every stop in his career — they’ve improved drastically each season. After improving to 6-7 a year ago, Leipold’s team is currently 8-4 this year and is looking for a ninth win. The Jayhawks were surgical offensively despite star quarterback Jalon Daniels being limited to just three early-season games due to a back injury. 7 passing yards per game) and 41st in pass defense (210. 5 passing yards allowed per game) this year. The Jayhawks rank 27th in scoring offense (33. 6 points per game) and 62nd in scoring defense (25. 8 points allowed per game) this season. The Jayhawks own the 97th-ranked defense this year in terms of rushing yards (167. 1 rushing yards allowed per game), and they've been better offensively, ranking ninth-best with 211. 3 rushing yards per game. I’m not a huge fan of laying double-digit points come bowl season. There are too many uncertainties with motivation, star players getting less work than usual, and a host of other factors for me to feel confident enough in a side to expect a blowout. UNLV should be highly motivated for this contest and possess a terrific offense, so I’ll bet on the Rebels keeping pace. The biggest mismatch of the game from a metrics perspective is the Kansas offense vs. the UNLV defense, so I’m using the Jayhawks’ team total Over of 38. 5 as the final leg. Now for UNLV. The Rebels are 9-4, improving by four wins from a season ago in Barry Odom’s successful Year One. They played for the MWC Championship as one of the biggest surprises in the country led by offensive coordinator Brennan Marrion’s unique and devastatingly effective GoGo Offense, averaging 34. 3 ppg on a superb 6. 1 yards per play. This marks the program’s first bowl game since 2013 and its best on-field performance since 1984. Track-speed dual-threat Jason Bean stepped in and averaged 9. 8 yards per attempt through the air and 6. 3 yards per attempt on the ground while leading an offense that averaged 33. 6 points per game. It’s truly amazing what this coaching staff pulled off sans Daniels, and it’s easy to see why offensive coordinator Andy Kotelnicki earned a promotion to Penn State. He won’t be on the sidelines for the Jayhawks for the bowl. Jim Zebrowski was promoted from quarterbacks coach to co-offensive coordinator and is the most likely play-caller as newly-hired Jeff Grimes likely won’t contribute this soon on the job. The Rebels weren’t tested much this year due to a weak schedule but allowed 37 points to San Jose State and 44 points to Boise State in the last two games of the year. Kansas brings more to the table than either of those teams. On the flip side, it’d be surprising if UNLV doesn’t find the end zone in this game as well. Marion’s offense is truly something to behold and has been effective (37th in EPA per play). Kansas’ defense improved mightily from a year ago but is still exploitable, checking in at 80th in EPA per play and 112th in success rate. It’s a high number, but Kansas managed to be an efficient offense this season despite having an injured QB1. This Rebels defense has been beaten by pretty much every good offense it has faced and I see no reason why that’d change in this matchup.

Both teams feature fun, unique, and potent offenses. Looking at the college football odds, it’s expected to be a high-scoring game with the total set at 64. 5 and a 12. 5-point spread in favor of the Big 12 representative. I have my eyes set on the total as Brennan Marion’s prolific UNLV offense combines with Kansas’ top-10 offense in a game that could see some fireworks.

Kansas has also been slightly profitable at 7-5 ATS, but it pales in comparison to the money-making machine that Rebels football has been. Marion’s offense has caught a lot of opposing teams — and bookmakers — off guard, going 8-4-1 O/U this year.

In terms of rushing, the Rebels rank 36th in the FBS on offense (180. 7 rushing yards per game) and 89th on defense (163. 3 rushing yards allowed per game).
