LAWRENCE, Kan. -- The Joe Ganz era begins today as Nebraska (4-5, 1-4 Big 12) limps to Kansas with a four-game losing streak. In past years, that would've been a good thing for the Huskers as they have won 37 of the past 38 games against the Jayhawks.

Obviously, things are much, much different this year. Kansas is off to an 8-0 start and has a defense that ranks among the best in the nation statistically. Nebraska put together a spirited effort last week in a 28-25 loss at Texas, but with the injury situation the Huskers are facing and the unknown of Ganz replacing the injured Sam Keller at quarterback, an upset bid seems unlikely.

The picks:
--Terry Douglass, sports editor: Kansas 34-27
--Kevin Schuster, sports writer: Kansas 40-15
--Brian Ayers, sports writer: Kansas, 17-0
