Kansas vs Iowa State Prediction – College Football Picks
Now we have the Kansas vs Iowa State Prediction for both teams.
This next Saturday, college football action will take place at Jack Trice Stadium, featuring a matchup between the Iowa State Cyclones and the Kansas Jayhawks. The following is a prediction for the matchup between Kansas and Iowa State. In order to establish which Kansas vs. Iowa State pick is the greatest, we will examine this situation from the point of view of betting. We are going to look at the current form and player performances of both sides, as well as the previous betting patterns and streaks that are associated with this encounter. Towards the end of this discussion, we will bring everything together by providing a synopsis that generates a rational selection for a betting outcome that is advantageous in this game.
A loss against Missouri was the only loss for the Jayhawks in their first four games of the season, with victories coming against Fresno State, Wagner, and West Virginia. The Jayhawks finished with a record of 3-1. Over the following five games, Kansas would finish with a record of 2-3, with victories over UCF and Oklahoma State in addition to defeats at the hands of Cincinnati, Texas Tech, and Kansas State. The Kansas Jayhawks defeated the Cowboys by a score of 38-21 on November 1. The victory was achieved by Kansas scoring 28 points in the second half of the game itself. The offensive unit amassed 342 yards, including 232 yards on the ground and 5.9 yards per play. Additionally, they were successful on six out of ten third-down attempts. In terms of defense, the Jayhawks allowed a total of 316 yards and 19 first downs, with an average of 5.1 yards coming from each play.
As a result of their most recent battle, which took place on November 8 against Arizona, the Jayhawks have once again entered the losing column. At the halftime break, Kansas held a 17-14 lead, but after that, they were outscored by 10-3, resulting in a difficult 24-20 loss. Jalon Daniels, the quarterback, led the team in rushing with 14 carries for 74 yards and another touchdown. He also completed 15 of 29 passes for 199 yards and one game-winning touchdown. While Kansas was losing, Emmanuel Henderson led the team in receiving with five receptions for 65 yards and a touchdown. He was also the top receiver for the team.
As for the Iowa State team, they began the season with a series of victories, including victories over Kansas State, South Dakota, Iowa, Arkansas State, and Arizona. This was the beginning of their success. The Cyclones, on the other hand, got off to a poor start in the last four games, suffering defeats to Cincinnati, Colorado, BYU, and Arizona State in quick succession. On November 1, the Cyclones were defeated by the Sun Devils by a score of 24-19. The Cyclones were unable to recover from the 14 points they gave up in the second quarter. In spite of the fact that Iowa State had 21 first downs and 336 yards of offense, they were only able to convert two out of fourteen third-down opportunities. In spite of the fact that they were able to secure three interceptions, the defense was unable to prevent the loss of 290 yards on the ground.
During their most recent game, which took place on November 8 against TCU, the Cyclones maintained a lead of one field goal in the first half of the game. To win the game, Iowa State had to hold on (and score twice in the fourth quarter), but in the end, they prevailed 20-17. Becht, the quarterback, completed nine of twenty-four passes for 111 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions. Carson Hansen, the running back, led the way with 28 touches for 108 yards and a touchdown. In the Cyclones’ victory, Chase Sowell led the receivers with just 31 yards on four catches, even though he was the only receiver in the game.
My preference will be for Kansas. Nevertheless, you could definitely construct a case for either side of this issue. As a result of a poor second half performance in their most recent game against Arizona, the Jayhawks finished with 369 total yards, 19 first downs, and a third-down conversion percentage of 6 out of 17 attempts. 5.4 yards per play, 18 first downs, and five out of thirteen on third downs were the total number of yards that the defense allowed the other team to gain. Over the course of the last four games, Kansas has scored fewer than 21 points in three of those contests. The one and only time they surpassed that total, they prevailed over Oklahoma State by a score of 38-21.
As for Iowa State, they have lost their last three games by a combined total of less than 21 points. There is a possibility that the final score will be rather low, but either way, it is going to be a fun game to watch.
