This may be one of the biggest mismatches of this year’s bowl season. Kansas State has been plagued by injuries and has been about as streaky as you can get, losing six games in the middle of the season bookended by to 3-game winning streaks. Despite Hall of Fame coach Bill Snyder being at the helm, there isn’t much to hope for if you’re a Wildcat fan in this one.
Arkansas has come on strong once again at the end of the season, and salvaged Bret Bielema’s job. The ground-and-pound Razorback running attack finished the season strong, and the defense also steadily improved.
Line: Arkansas, -11
The Razorbacks will absolutely win this game, but it’s hard to see a Bill Snyder coached team losing a bowl game by double-digits. Unfortunately they will. Take Arky and the points.
