Why Colorado Can Cover

Colorado is one of five teams in the Big 12 with a perfect record in conference play and enters this matchup on a three-game winning streak. The Buffaloes put together their most impressive performance of the season, earning a 48-21 victory at UCF in late September. Their defense held the then-No. 1 rushing attack in the country to just 177 yards, which was nearly 200 yards below their average.

They also recorded five sacks and 13 tackles for a loss in that game, and safety Shilo Sanders (forearm) is expected to return for Saturday’s matchup against the Wildcats. Senior quarterback Shedeur Sanders has thrown for 1,630 yards and 14 touchdowns and ranks second nationally with 27.6 completions per game. Wide receiver/defensive back Travis Hunter is one of the top contenders for the Heisman Trophy with 561 receiving yards and six touchdowns. See which team you should choose here.

Why Kansas State can cover

Kansas State celebrates its most impressive win of the season, securing a 22-point victory over then-No. 1-20 Oklahoma State. Sophomore quarterback Avery Johnson completed 19 of 31 passes for 259 yards and three touchdowns while rushing for 60 yards and two more scores. Junior running back DJ Giddens was arguably just as impressive in this game, running 15 times for 187 yards and a score.

The Wildcats are averaging the seventh-most rushing yards per game nationally (252.2) and face a Colorado defense that allows the fourth-most yards per game in the Big 12 (379.6). Colorado’s win over UCF doesn’t look all that impressive after the Knights lost to Florida by two points last week. Kansas State has covered the spread in 10 of its last 14 Big 12 games, while Colorado is 3-15 in its last games played on Oct. 18. See which team you should choose here.
