Now, the model has set its sights on Kansas vs. Iowa State. You can head to SportsLine to see its picks. Here are several college football odds for Iowa State vs. Kansas:
Kansas nearly appeared in the AP Top-25 Poll for the first time since 2009, but it will need to pull off another upset in order to make that happen. The Jayhawks have already knocked off West Virginia and Houston as underdogs, along with beating Tennessee Tech and Duke as favorites. They covered the 7-point spread in a 35-27 win over Duke in front of a national audience last week.
Their offense has been deadly this season, ranking seventh in the FBS in points per game (47.0). Kansas tallied a season-high 528 yards of offense last week, with quarterback Jalon Daniels starting to generate some Heisman Trophy buzz. The Jayhawks have covered the spread in seven consecutive games and have given bettors no reason to fade them so far this season.
Iowa State got off to a strong start this season when it beat Southeast Missouri State, Iowa and Ohio in consecutive games. The Cyclones suffered their first loss of the campaign last week, coming up short in a 31-24 final against a ranked Baylor team. They will be the best defensive team that Kansas has faced, as they are allowing just 266 yards per game.
Sophomore Hunter Dekkers leads a capable offense, passing for more than 1,000 yards and 10 touchdowns this season. Junior running back Jirehl Brock has gone over 70 yards in all four games, averaging 5.5 yards per carry. The Cyclones have won seven straight games against Kansas, covering in four of the last five meetings.
The model has simulated Iowa State vs. Kansas 10,000 times and the results are in. We can tell you that the model is leaning Under, and it’s also generated a point-spread pick where one side has all of the value. You can only see the pick at SportsLine.
