Kansas State vs. Arizona State Prediction: Pass With Avery Johnson Questionable
Analysis updated October 23, 2026 at 8:08 AM CDT
Kansas State has the shorter price, but uncertainty at quarterback makes the Wildcats difficult to back at -130 or -2.5.
Quarterback Questions Cloud a Short Spread
Kansas State visits Arizona State as a 2.5-point favorite, with the Wildcats at -130 and the Sun Devils at +110 on the moneyline. The total is 55.5. That small spread leaves little room for Kansas State to underperform if its offense is missing key players.
KCTV5, a Kansas City television station, reported that Kansas State quarterback Avery Johnson is questionable for the October 24 game. Backup quarterback Blake Barnett and tight end Garrett Oakley are also questionable. With both listed quarterbacks carrying uncertain status, Kansas State's price isn't attractive without confirmation of who will play.
Betting Outlook
Fade the Public Analytics reports that Kansas State has attracted 88% of moneyline bets, while Arizona State has received 61% of the money. The publication doesn't identify its sportsbook sample or methodology, so those splits don't provide a reliable reason to back either side.
The market price makes Kansas State the likely winner, but the available evidence doesn't support laying -130 or 2.5 points. Arizona State's +2.5 also lacks enough on-field support, so the wager is a pass.
