Kansas State Betting Outlook

Kansas State’s offense has been outstanding late in the season, even though star quarterback Adrian Martinez has missed the last three games with a league injury.

The Wildcats have scored at least 47 points in three of their last five games. They are averaging 40.2 in that span.

Deuce Vaughn led the Wildcats in their win over Kansas. He rushed for 147 yards and one touchdown on 25 carries and caught two passes for 82 yards.

For the season, Vaughn’s 1,295 yards rank third in the Big 12. He has carried 245 times and scored seven touchdowns. Vaughn is a +20000 longshot in the Heisman Trophy odds.

Howard has completed 62.9% of his 132 passes for 1,224 yards and 13 touchdowns with just two interceptions. He was 11 of 21 for 213 yards and two scores last week.

Malik Knowles had two touchdown runs against Kansas. He is more noted for being Kansas State’s top receiver with 46 catches for 679 yards and two TDs.

Points are tough to come by against the Wildcats. They are giving up just 19.4 points a game, the 15^th-best mark in the nation.

Kansas State is 8-3-1 against the spread this season.

TCU Betting Outlook

Max Duggan lost his starting job in training camp. However, the quarterback has been sensational since getting it back.

His 3,070 passing yards and 29 touchdown passes led the conference. He has completed two-thirds of his passes and been intercepted just three times in 332 attempts.

Duggan was efficient in the rout of Iowa State. He completed 17 of 24 passes for 212 yards and three touchdowns as TCU scored at least 40 points for the sixth time in 12 games this season.

Kendre Miller had two touchdowns runs and 72 yards in 12 attempts.

Miller raised his season totals to 1,260 yards and 16 TDs on 199 carries. He is second in the Big 12 in rushing TDs and fourth in rushing yards, and his streak of 13 straight games with a rushing touchdown is the longest active one in the FBS.

Quentin Johnson, TCU’s leading receiver, sat out last week’s game with an ankle injury but is expected to play. He has 49 receptions for 764 yards and five scores.

Johnson is third in the conference in receiving yardage. He is a key component to an offense that is fourth in the country in scoring (41.3) and 16^th in total yardage (473.3).

TCU scored its first two defensive touchdowns of the season against Iowa State on interception returns from safety Millard Bradford and cornerback Josh Newton.

The Horned Frogs are 9-2-1 ATS.

Kansas State is playing as well as any team in the country now. Look for the Wildcats to get revenge in this rematch.
