Kansas State vs Baylor Prediction & Pick
The Bears have gone run-heavy in their last three games, rushing for over 230 yards each week while averaging 54 attempts per game. Consider that Baylor is now averaging 204 rushing yards and 44 carries per contest and you can see the change in approach to the ground game.
Kansas State has allowed just 7 rushing TDs and is middle of the pack in the Big 12 with 148 rushing yards allowed per game. But Texas just ran for 269 yards against the Wildcats, so the Bears' approach will likely be similar and continue to pound the ground.
Baylor's defense held Kansas to its second-lowest output of the year and held Texas Tech's offense to its worst game of the year. Expect a similar performance at home agains t a K-State team that will also focus more on running the ball with their starting quarterback still up in the air.
