This six-week meeting between two of the Big 12's best teams could play out in a variety of ways. “Nobody knows how this game is going to end,” Kansas State head coach Chris Klieman said Monday. Colorado boasts arguably the best QB in college football and a Heisman Trophy front-runner, but Kansas State may be the most complete team in the conference at this point despite the Buffs' major improvements.

The Wildcats' rushing attack, even if slowed down a bit, could limit Colorado's offensive options and shorten the game. The Buffs have also had difficulty containing mobile QBs this season, dating back to the season opener against NDSU (where Klieman coached before taking over at Kansas State).

Saturday's game could be similar to Colorado's Week 1 win (31-26) over the Bison. The Wildcats, unlike NDSU, actually have the talent to compete with the Buffs' stars.

Kansas State wins 37-35.

According to BetMGM's college football odds as of Saturday afternoon, Kansas State is the favorite to win over Colorado by 3.5 points.

Colorado will have its entire starting defense back for Kansas State, Deion Sanders said Tuesday.

That group also includes starting safety Shilo Sanders, who has been off the roster since Week 2 when he suffered a forearm injury that required surgery.

“Shilo is ready,” Deion Sanders said Tuesday. “He's practicing, he's fully engaged, he's got a cast, he's doing his thing. I can’t wait to see him there again because he and Cam (Silmon-Craig) are incredible together.”
