Two of the industry's top cappers are all over the Mizzou spread of +5½ in their Saturday Week 3 game against Kansas State. For all the week's consensus plays go here.
Kyle Parker has put the hammer down for more than 25-years as a bookie, line mover, oddsmaker, and gambler. He knows trends, and has proven it time and again with win, after win. And he's on Missouri.
Then there is big name capper Ben Burns. He's part of the WagerTalk family of fine sports handicappers. Ben logs long hours and is surrounded by a team of assistants who do the same to consistently deliver with his big plays. Burns' O/U selections are internationally renowned.
The line on this game had moved from Wildcats -5.5 to -4.5 as of Tuesday.
The Tigers are coming off two wins to kick off the new season but KSU will present the toughest test by far. And even though Mizzou pulled off the win against South Dakota in Week 2, they still struggled in the second half.
Brady Cook threw for 172 yards and a touchdown while running for another score in his half for the Tigers.
“Brady played a more consistent half,” Missouri coach Eli Drinkwitz said after the game. “We'll go back and evaluate the tape. I'm not going to make a rush judgment there on that decision. I do think Brady was very efficient. Sam had his moments as well.”
Kansas State hasn't had a whole lot of competition yet either. Will Howard passed for 3 touchdowns and runs for 2 others to lead No. 15 K-State past Troy 42-13 this past weekend.
Action was around 80% on the spread going the Wildcats way early.
