Kansas State is a veteran team playing great. Senior QB Will Howard (14 TDs, 7 INTs) and RBs D.J. Giddens (722 yards, 6.2 ypc) and Treshaun Ward (458 yards, 5.3 ypc) lead a balanced attack that is 18th in total yards (447 per game) and 12th in points (36.3 per game). The defense is ranked 17th in points allowed (18.1 per game) and eighth on third down (29%). Texas had a blistering September but has cooled off. In two of their last three, they squeezed by Houston, 31-24, as a 24-point favorite and lost to Oklahoma, 34-30, as 5-point chalk giving up 486 yards (285 passing, 201 rushing). QB Quinn Ewers has an AC joint sprain and may not be able to play and backup freshman QB Maalik Murphy (2 TDs, one INT) may have to play. Play Kansas State on the moneyline.

Texas at Kansas State
