Kansas State Wildcats

Kansas State beat 20th ranked Arizona 31-7 at home last week. Quarterback Avery Johnson played a great game, throwing for 156 yards and 2 touchdowns, and running for another 110 yards on 17 carries. DJ Giddens had 17 carries as well for 86 yards and 1 touchdown. The defense did a great job of slowing down a powerful Arizona offense, allowing star quarterback Noah Fifita to throw for 268 yards, 0 touchdowns, and picked him off once. Kansas State also held Arizona to just 2.9 yards per rush. This was a great bounce back game following a shaky outing at Tulane where they had to come back from trailing 20-10 at the half. They ended up winning 34-27.

BYU Cougars

BYU returns home after two straight away games. Their last game was a 34-14 victory over Wyoming. Jake Retzlaff played very well throwing for 291 yards and 3 touchdowns, while also adding an interception. The defense allowed just 217 total yards but did allow Wyoming QB Evan Svoboda to run 2 in for scores. Prior to that the Cougars handed SMU their first loss of the season 18-15. In this one Retzlaff threw for 200 yards and 1 touchdown with 2 interceptions. The defense held dual threat QB Kevin Jennings to 140 yards throwing with an interception and 38 yards on 9 carries.

Kansas State is 7-6 in their last 13 games

The OVER is 3-2 in Kansas State’s last 5 away games

BYU is 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games

The OVER is 7-5 in BYU’s last 12 games

Kansas State vs. BYU Prediction:

I’ll take BYU to cover the 7 points at home late on Saturday night. This is a sneaky spot for BYU to possibly steal this game. Kansas State is coming off of a huge ranked match up win at home over Arizona and their next game after BYU is a home game against 14th ranked Oklahoma State. In their last away game the Wildcats had to fight back from being down 20-10 at the half. I think Kansas State will be looking ahead to next week and BYU will be able to take advantage and keep this one close at home.

Kansas State vs. BYU Prediction: BYU +7
