I'm expecting a little big of a letdown for TCU after a huge win over Texas last week. I'm expecting Skylar Thompson to be ready to play for Kansas State, but I still make the Wildcats only +7.5 if freshman Will Howard has to play in this game. If Thompson is confirmed in I only make the Wildcats +3 road dogs against this TCU squad. Take the points.

Kansas State coach Chris Klieman has paid his dues working his way up the coaching chain. Klieman focuses on the fundamentals of blocking, tackling and special teams. In his one plus year at K-State, the Wildcats are 11-5 ATS, including a 5-1 ATS mark on the road. Star QB Skylar Thompson was listed probable early in the week which was a good sign. Thompson's value is 5.5 points. TCU could see a letdown off a major win over Texas.
