Kansas State vs. Texas A&M

The Kansas State Wildcats, under Coach Bill Snyder, have been point spread darlings throughout his coaching tenure, but that has not translated well to Bowl games. Kansas State is just 7-12 SU in Bowl games and a woeful 5-14 ATS. Those numbers are even worse lately as they are 1-9 ATS in their last 10 Bowls as well as 1-9 SU. Kansas State is a very strong team on the ground, both running the ball and stopping the run, but are very mediocre against the pass on both sides. The good news for A&M is QB Trevor Knight will be playing. His running ability adds another dimension to the Texas A&M offense, and the Aggies are 7-2 in his nine starts where he finished the game, losing only to defensive stallwarts Alabama and LSU. I don't think they will have to deal with quite the same resistance here against Kansas State. Kansas State has not only been an under-achieving Bowl team, but they fit a Bowl situation which is a woeful 13-45 ATS. Make the play on Texas A&M.
