Kansas State vs TCU Betting Prediction
The offensive performance of the Wildcats on the road has been strong, averaging more than 80 points per game while connecting on 49% of their attempts. They don't get as many extra scoring opportunities against the Horned Frogs because they don't rebound the ball as proficiently as they do.
The Horned Frogs, who average more than eight steals per game at home, will benefit from the Wildcats' carelessness with the ball as they turn the ball over an average of more than 15 times a game, which gives them more chances to score.
Expect the Wildcats' offense to be restrained by the Horned Frogs, who limit opponents to 61 points or less per game at home. Take the home team to cover the spread in this contest.
