Kansas enters with 33.6 points per game and 475.6 total yards per game, powered by 260.8 passing yards and 214.8 rushing yards per game, but the Jayhawks have also allowed 21.8 points per game and are coming off a loss. Kansas State is scoring 35.6 points per game with 444.0 total yards per game, and its defense has been better by allowing just 19.2 points and 291.8 yards per game. The Wildcats have also produced strong balance on offense, with 228.0 passing yards and 216.0 rushing yards per game, which helps them sustain drives at home. Kansas State’s recent form is less sharp than its season profile, but the defensive edge still gives it the cleaner overall setup in this rivalry game.
Kansas State should win a close game at home, with the projected final score landing at Kansas State Wildcats 31, Kansas Jayhawks 24. The Wildcats have the better defense, the stronger scoring profile, and enough offensive balance to edge Kansas, but the matchup still projects to stay just below the main total. That makes the under the preferred position, while Kansas State remains the more likely winner on the field.
