Kansas State at Iowa State picks and predictions
Prediction
Kansas State 24, Iowa State 20
Moneyline
PASS.
I like Kansas State right here, and contemplating it has solely had 1 one-point win since 2018, I’ll take the marginally higher odds on the unfold.
In opposition to the unfold
BET KANSAS STATE -1.5 (-105).
Iowa State is averaging 26 factors per recreation, however it hasn’t had that very same success towards high quality opponents. Whereas defensively, it restricted QB Jalon Daniels final week, it nonetheless didn’t cowl as 3.5-point favorites.
Iowa State has struggled to run the ball towards high quality sides, not getting over 75 yards towards both Kansas or Baylor. The Cyclones don’t have a go-to playmaker like Martinez. QB Hunter Dekkers has struggled this season, throwing 6 interceptions.
Martinez, alternatively, is having the most effective seasons of his profession, averaging virtually 100 speeding yards per recreation. Martinez ought to have success just like Daniels as they’re each elite threats on the bottom.
The Wildcats have extra spectacular wins over higher-quality opponents like Oklahoma. With that in thoughts, I’d again them to cowl regardless of being on the highway.
Over/Underneath
LEAN UNDER 45.5 (-115).
Given how Iowa State has performed towards Energy 5 sides offensively, it solely appears good to play the below. The Cyclones are permitting 14.4 factors per recreation to opponents this season, the eleventh fewest within the nation.
Whereas Martinez is a stud, his arm isn’t what makes him dynamic, and speeding the ball retains the clock shifting. I count on this to be a grind-it-out recreation just like the Cyclones are used to.
If that’s the case, UNDER 45.5 (-115) is the facet to be on.
