Baylor vs. Kansas Odds: Baylor a 35.5 point favorite on the road against the Jayhawks

Once again, the oddsmakers in Vegas have, it could be said, challenged the Baylor Bears to outdo themselves in the 2013 season.  In a year where the Bears have seen spreads of 29, 27.5, 30, and 33 points, they've now also been named a 5 touchdown favorite for this week's game against the Kansas Jayhawks.   Kansas is coming off a disappointing final three quarters against the Oklahoma Sooners after having taken a 13-point lead in the opening frame and will welcome the Bears to the friendly confines of Lawrence this coming weekend.

I have no idea what to do with this spread.  I thought 33 points was high for Iowa State, then Baylor won by 64.  Those things obviously aren't related to each other -- Kansas isn't Iowa State and vice versa -- it just explains my trepidation about a line that huge.  I don't want to disrespect the team by saying they can't do it because clearly they can.  Whether they will is a different story.

Other interesting lines in the Big 12 for this week:

TCU -2 vs. UT
Okie State -14 at Iowa State
OU -8 vs. Texas Tech
Kansas State -9 vs. West Virginia
