9/21/2023 GAME 4 Kansas State Edition (Posted from Cape Town):
----
Kansas State Fun-Facts:
Athletic nickname: Wildcats (didn't have to change this field from last week...)
Founded in 1863
Manhattan, Kansas is indeed known as "The Little Apple"
The logo is called "The Powercat"
The mascot is "Willie the Wildcat"...and it bothers me for some reason, can't stop looking at it.
----
Players to watch for Kansas State:
Kansas State is a little banged up after their unexpected last-second field-goal loss to Missouri. I don't like hearing about injuries, even with opponents...changes the expectations of the game, etc. Things are a little hard to predict with this game due to the number of questionables.
Will Howard #18, QB - SR, Questionable for this game, but if he plays he is a obviously quite capable in the air. We may see Jake Rubley, #2 instead. RS SO.
Treshaun Ward #9, RB - Also Questionable for this game. We may see more of #31 DJ Giddens, RS SO and was projected starter before Ward's transfer into the program.
***Onto the REAL Beef*** (Or ...nothing, because you don't know where to go in a new city.)
Weather forecast at
8:00PM Eastern kickoff:
Sunset: 7:24pm
Temp: 86F
Poncho-factor: 44% ...similar to 2010, the "Independance Day Starship Storm" game.
TV: Fox Sports 1
I ran only 6 scores since I'm working in South Africa this week...plus, there's a few unknowns with this game because of the injuries.
Sim Average Score Results:
UCF 42
Kansas State 30
Sim Spread: UCF -12
"Heart" Prediction:
UCF 35
Kansas State 27
"Heart" spread:
CENTRAL FLORIDA (Trigger warning): UCF -8 (Kansas State -6.5 6:11 AM 9/21)
Julian is back again this year and he turns 12 in November! The soothsayer returns with his line of dungeon-level doom...
UCF 34
Kansas State 31
Julian's line of doom: UCF -3 (He's not old enough for Vegas, sorry)
What's your prediction?
