🔥 Dylan Edwards first team TD scorer (+300) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Dylan Edwards played second fiddle in the Kansas State backfield last year to DJ Giddens, who is now with the Indianapolis Colts. When Edwards got the backfield to himself in the bowl win over Rutgers, he turned 18 carries into 196 yards and two scores.

Edwards flashed his home run ability in that game with touchdown runs of 36 and 65 yards. He also caught a 26-yard touchdown pass from returning quarterback Avery Johnson, which shows his versatility in the passing game.

Edwards’ -125 anytime touchdown odds are the shortest of any player on either team in this game, so let’s take a flier on him being the first Wildcat to find the endzone with a winning $10 bet returning a $30 profit at FanDuel.

🔥 Jayce Brown to score anytime TD (+145) ⭐⭐⭐

Jayce Brown is Kansas State’s leading returning receiver, having averaged over 17 yards per catch with five receiving touchdowns last year.

Johnson has the Over on his 1.5 passing touchdowns juiced as short as +112, carrying a 47.17% implied probability. But he also threw three touchdowns against Iowa State last year, two of which went to Brown.

Brown made the most of his three catches against the Cyclones last year, and now Iowa State will not have star cornerback Darien Porter (NFL) to shadow him in this game. These +145 odds at Caesars are enticing compared to Brown’s +130 odds on the low end of the market.

🔥 Benjamin Brahmer to score anytime TD (+375) ⭐⭐

We are swinging for the fences somewhat with our final anytime touchdown scorer prediction, as Benjamin Brahmer has the sixth-shortest odds of any Cyclones player.

Brahmer is a massive red zone target at 6-foot-7 and 255 pounds. Though he had just 10 catches and one touchdown last year, he should be much more involved in heavy formations, as Iowa State transforms its offense after losing its top two star wideouts who combined for 17 of the team’s 25 touchdown receptions a year ago.

The value is certainly there at BetMGM, as Brahmer’s anytime touchdown odds are as low as +310 (carrying a 24.39% implied probability) at FanDuel. A $10 winning wager at these +375 odds would return $37.50 in profits.

Up To $1,500 First Bet

Mike started in the sports writing industry in July 2019, and gained a lot of followers in his first year after finishing with the No. 2 overall record in an annual NFL betting competition, which made picks against the spread, and from an Over/Under and moneyline perspective. Mike is an avid fan of the NFL, MLB, tennis, and all college sports. In his opinion, March Madness is the best sporting event there is, and he's especially euphoric starting with conference tournament time in college basketball. Mike's a big advocate of "fading the public" and making plays that are contrarian, constantly citing that "there are reasons why they have those big shiny buildings in Las Vegas." When making wagers, Mike always scours the best odds at all of the major sports betting sites, where he mostly sifts through DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, and bet365. He's tried several others and is of the firm belief that bettors should not just stick to one sportsbook, as there is always likely better value to be had with the same wager. In addition, while Mike received his undergraduate degree from Villanova University, he has no issue betting against the Wildcats when it comes to college basketball wagering, and suggests other bettors should always put their “head” before their “hearts.”
