No. 9 Kansas:

Kansas has a tough road to hoe this season. Andrew Bolton is not going to come away with any post-season hardware, but he is a right-sized defensive tackle capable of holding his own. To go along with him, Ben Goodman returns at defensive end; definitely undersized to be playing on the strong side, but plays bigger than the scale. Unfortunately, the Jayhawks will just be too small and won’t have the depth to hang around with many offensive lines in this conference.
