Say SO FLA wins the game but late....Kansas is a better team but I don't see SO FLA winning by more than 2 or 3. Feel like its gonna come down to last team with the ball and when I feel this I'll always take the points (obviously) Kansas has a tiny advantage on both sides of the ball. Very Tiny. This becomes a wash because of where the game is being played...Im voting because there is a poll...this game has stay away written all over it
i won't be playing the game cause i missed out on getting Kansas +6, but i still feel they will cover this game with a very good chance of winning. so. fla has been anything but impressive IMO. i think Kansas will have an easy time scoring and so. fla's offense is not consistent enough to score with Kansas who I feel is one of the most underrated teams in the country. Mangino is a very very good coach and will have them ready to play on the short week
South Florida looks good to me. Returning almost all the starters from last year and playing at home. Won't be very cool down in Florida either. Nice and humid. We saw what USF did to West Virginia down there last year as a small underdog. Looks like most people are assuming a South Florida victory but remember that even though Kansas ran up a great record last year, that record consisted of beating one decent team all year and that was Virginia Tech in their bowl game. Their schedule last year was absolutely pathetic. They got drilled by Missouri in the regular season finale after they finally played someone with a pulse.
Agree with hackerhog. People are overreacting to SF's lackluster victory over UCF. There was the intrastate rivalry factor as well as the dreaded "look ahead." The stats don't lie. SF was handling UCF for most of the game before they decided to sleep walk through the rest - thus giving up those 2 late TDs.
Under the lights + on national TV + AT HOME, I really feel the Bulls will cover the small price. Currently -3.5 at The Greek as I type this. I am hoping more Kansas money will come in ny Friday to give me the flat -3.
SF or no play for me.

It's still early to tell, but I say South Florida.
Why?
Out of 4800 bets it seems that 81% of the "public" is taking Kansas. Vegas wasn't built on losing, obviousl. (sorry had to say it) Now I usually don't feel confident until that gets to around 48000 bets or higher, so we're only at 10%, but I don't see this changing.

The only site that has true public betting information. Most of the others, i.e. covers.com wagerline.com, etc are not very accurate.
And like I said, its still early, but if that gets to over 50k bets, the public is right 2 out of 8 so far this year!
So you're saying Kansas will cover because USF had to go to overtime to beat UCF? Who exactly has Kansas beaten? Kansas beat one team with a pulse last year and that was Virginia Tech in the bowl game (and Virg. Tech's QB situation is awful). Kansas didn't pay anyone during the regular season last year until Missouri in the last game of the season and they got beat handily. I don't understand why everyone is so sure Kansas covers this game so easily.
