They are going up against a Kansas State team that is 7-2 this season and they are also 4-2 in the conference. They have also been playing very well recently as they have won 4 of their last 5 games, but they are coming off of a loss against Houston in their last game.

Kansas State is a more run heavy team and they have a great run game that has been very efficient all season, but Arizona State also has a good run defense that is only allowing 118.8 rushing yards per game and 3.6 yards per carry so they are going to be able to slow down this Kansas State offense. Kansas State has also been very good at defending the run, allowing just 99.4 rushing yards per game, but Arizona State also has one of the better running backs in the country in Cam Skattebo and he will likely be returning for this game. Kansas State has been good at stopping the run, but they are going to struggle against a running back like Skattebo and this is a game that Arizona State is going to get up for since the loser of this game will likely be eliminated from making the Big 12 Championship. Arizona State will cover the spread in this game.
