Arizona vs. Kansas State Prediction
Arizona comes into the contest with a record of 2-0.
The Cats won 22-10 over Northern Arizona last week and 61-39 over New Mexico in Week 1.
Despite the win last week, Arizona was not happy with its performance. They entered the contest as a 36.5-point favorite.
Tonight will be the Wildcats' first game as a part of the Big 12.
A road win tonight would shoot Arizona up the rankings.
Sophomore Noah Fifita is one of the best signal callers in the conference. Fifita has thrown for 595 yards, five touchdowns, and two interceptions.
Quali Conley leads the Cats backfield with 202 yards and three touchdowns on the young season.
Tetairoa McMillan is one of the best wide receivers in college football. The junior has racked up 315 yards and four touchdowns over two games.
Arizona knows its offense is good enough to compete in the conference, but the question is whether its defense can step up this season.
Kansas State rolls into play with a 2-0 record.
The Wildcats survived a scare last weekend. They trailed for most of the game on the road against Tulane.
K-State tied the game with just over 11 minutes left in the fourth.
Jack Fabris scooped and scored a 60-yard touchdown to give the Cats the lead late in the fourth.
The touchdown would be the difference in the game.
Kansas State is one of the favorites to win the Big 12 season.
The main reason for that is sophomore Avery Johnson. Johnson is one of the best dual-threat quarterbacks in college football. The Kansas native has thrown for 334 yards and four touchdowns this season.
Junior DJ Giddens leads the rushing game with 238 yards on the ground.
Jayce Brown leads the receiving core, racking up 88 yards this year.
The Wildcats defense struggled last week against Tulane.
Arizona vs. Kansas State Betting Pick
We will cheer for a lot of points in this game tonight.
These are two explosive offenses that will play with pace tonight.
Kansas State struggled on defense early in the season and now faces one of the best offensive units in college football.
On the other hand, Arizona allowed 29 points to a below-average New Mexico offense and will have trouble against Johnson and the Wildcats' offense.
Let’s stay hot and cash tonight!
