Kansas State vs Arizona State Prediction
I’ll probably just stick with Kansas State. The Wildcats have had some time to nurse their wounds after the stunner loss to Houston in their last outing, so they should look more collected here. The Wildcats posted 327 total yards in that one (238 passing) with a spotty 5-of-14 rate on third downs and the two interceptions.
As for Arizona State, they didn’t have the most overwhelming numbers in the win over UCF last weekend, but got the job done. The Sun Devils posted a tepid 260 total yards (99 rushing), 4.6 yards per play and 18 first downs. (The nine UCF penalties helped as well.) The Sun Devils will have a lot more to deal with this weekend.
