5*
(NCAAF) Kansas State vs. Texas,
Point Spread: -7.00 | 100.00 Texas (Home)
Result: Win
One week after the Kansas State Wildcats were pummeled by the Oklahoma Sooners, 55-0, they travel to Austin to take on the Texas Longhorns, and it could be just as bad. That game was in Manhttan, now the 'Cats have to travel? Texas may have saved its season and coach Charlie Strong's job with a win over Oklahoma. Now the Longhorns will make a run at six wins, and become bowl eligible. Look for the difference here to be Texas' running game. Texas has shown success on the ground this season and I think will be able to carry the momentum into this game, after a 313-yard rushing performance against Oklahoma. Freshman Jerrod Heard is crafty, and knows how to make the most of open spaces. He will terrorize the Wildcats once he gets into the secondary. Texas is at home and need a win here to continue momentum and should win this one big on Saturday afternoon.
