The game is in Austin, so I give Texas the advantage there. But, the Cats have a bye week to prepare, and if nothing else, Prince seems to do his best work when he has more than a week to game plan.
If the Cats defense can get healthy, it should keep the game close, at least for a half. If it's still banged up, things could get ugly.
The K-State offense isn't consistent enough, or fluid enough to win a shootout, yet (last year was the end of the season, and at home).
