Free Analysis: Kansas State is one of only six undefeated teams left in the FBS, the team winning all nine of its bouts thus far by an average of 25.7 ppg. The Wildcats are 9-0 overall and 6-0 in the Big 12 for just the third time under legendary coach Bill Snyder, and the first time since 1999. K-State is ranked second once again in this week's BCS standings, the highest BCS ranking in school history. The 'Cats took out visiting Oklahoma State last weekend, 44-30, and following this bout, will play at Baylor next Saturday before wrapping up the regular season at home versus Texas on Dec. 1. The Kansas State offense is one of the more potent not only in the Big 12 but the nation as well, and the unit is led by Heisman hopeful Collin Klein. With the gifted quarterback at the controls, the Wildcats are lighting up the scoreboard to the tune of 44.3 ppg, behind nearly 440 total ypg. Klein is a true threat in every sense of the word, as in addition to completing 71.1 percent of his passes for 1,875 yards, 12 TDs and only two interceptions, he ranks second on the team in rushing with 698 yards and a whopping 17 scores. Defensively, the Wildcats are permitting just 18.6 ppg as foes have had trouble finding running lanes (99.2 ypg, six TDs), enjoying more success with the pass (259.3 ypg, 11 TDs). Still, the KSU defense has made a slew of big plays, logging 24 takeaways and 21 sacks.
TCU's first season as a member of the Big 12 has had its up and downs, the team sporting a 6-3 overall record, but just a 3-3 league ledger. Last weekend, the Horned Frogs paid a visit to the other new team in the conference, West Virginia, and escaped in double-overtime with a 39-38 victory. That win snapped a two-game losing streak for coach Gary Patterson's squad, which continues a murderous second-half stretch following this clash as it face Texas and Oklahoma on Nov. 22 and Dec. 1, respectively. While not as prolific as its counterpart, the TCU offense can hold its own with most in the Big 12, the Horned Frogs averaging 169.3 ypg rushing (fourth in the conference) while tallying 264.8 ypg passing. Of the 33 TDs the team has scored this season, 24 of them have come through the air. TCU has committed 23 turnovers, 14 of which have been on fumbles. Casey Pachall (.660, 948 yards, 10 TDs, one interception) was the team's starting QB, but he is undergoing therapy following a DUI arrest, thus Trevone Boykin has assumed the job and has thrown for 1,376 yards, with 13 TD passes and seven picks. Josh Boyce is the Frogs' top pass catcher, having grabbed 50 balls for 687 yards and seven scores. The run game features four guys with at least 248 yards, led by B.J. Catalon and his 401 yards. The Horned Frogs possess one of the nation's top defenses, ranking eighth in the FBS against the run (96.6 ypg) and 25th in total defense (333.7 ypg). Joel Hasley leads the squad with 68 tackles, while Devonte Fields has a team-best eight sacks and 14.5 TFL. Jason Verrett heads the secondary with five interceptions and 12 PBU.
Free Pick: Gonna go with TCU in this one. Kansas State has been rolling over teams this year, but I feel the TCU defense can slow them down here. Last week Klein was injured and spent the last 20 minutes on the bench. The Wildcats produced just 6 points the rest of the game with out him in there. If he can go they will be hard pressed to put up many points on this very good TCU defense that has allowed just 337 ypg and 24 ppg on the year. Even if Klein does play he probably won’t be at 100% which should slow him down some as well. TCU does allow 25 ppg at home, but just 290 ypg and should do enough to keep the Wildcats in check here. KSU has been excellent on defense this year, but TCU has been very good on offense, especially at home where they have averaged 485 ypg and 39.8 ppg on the year. TCU should come up with enough big plays on both sides of the ball to keep this one close or win it outright.
