00:00Set on the table for this game is going to take place at 6.30 p.m. Eastern tonight, 3.09, 3.10 on the rotation. Fresno State and Kansas. You're right, Joe. 13.5 was that opening number. Some outlets now, Joe. 14s are starting to pop up right now. A total that was 51.5, some at 49.5, some at 50.5. So we're not sure what we're going to get out of there. The one thing we do know with Kansas, love their head coach. Lance Leipold is a very good coach. But how about this, Joe? Only two offensive line starters back this year. Three starters back on defense. Devin Neal was your all-world running back.
00:28He's now going, but Iowa transfer that two years ago was sixth in the Big Ten in rushing. Had a couple injury situations. He should get the start today for Kansas.
00:36Yeah, so when we talk about what I like in this matchup, I lean to Kansas because, again, I don't think they can afford to start slow. You have a new head coach, new scheme. I always like that, right?
00:46Especially with only five starters coming back on the defensive side of the ball. That could be a cause of concern for Fresno State. But if the offensive line, to your point, two starters there.
00:55If they break down, that means Jalen Daniels can break contain. And I understand sacks are always part of the equation when we talk rush yards.
01:03But his number is 37.5 today. He averaged 4.7 yards per carry, rushed for over 400 yards, and that was in limited action.
01:12So, again, I like Jalen Daniels on the ground. Hinshaw, the running back that you mentioned as well, could step up today.
01:18But, again, I think it's Jalen Daniels to hit pay dirt and get over his rushing total.
01:23I alter him as high as 50-plus today.
01:25He's been around the block, Joe.
01:272024, 171 completions, 300 attempts, a 57% completion rating, and also 14 touchdowns.
01:32But they threw in 12 interceptions there.
01:35But if we are looking at the other quarterback on the opposite side, it's E.J. Warner.
01:38I don't know who that is.
01:39He's actually, Joe, been around the block.
01:40And also, his last three years, 2022, 2023, and 2024, 439 attempts, 445 attempts, and 443 attempts.
01:50Experience.
01:50This isn't a guy coming in like, hey, I'm a fifth-year senior.
01:52It's going to be my first start.
01:53He's been around the block.
01:54You take the good, the bad, and the ugly, right?
01:56He completed over 60% of his passes, well over 5,000 yards over the last couple of seasons, 40 touchdowns, but 25 interceptions.
02:05So that's a thick cutie or a thick dicks, baby.
02:08There you go.
02:09So, right, you know, he could score points.
02:11He could also give it away.
02:13And that's one you look at.
02:14So I lean to, obviously, Kansas in this matchup.
02:18But maybe we get the over here with the quarterback in the new scheme.
02:22We get the touchdowns from Jalen Daniels.
02:24We get the interceptions from E.J. Warner.
02:28And then we're off to the races for potentially over the 50 and a hook.
