NBC Sports Bet Best Bets
Brad Thomas (@MrBradThomas) is taking Noah Fifita Over 249.5 Passing Yards
There are a few ways this match can pan out. If this becomes a ground battle, my edge goes to Kansas State. With how poorly Kansas State looked in the secondary against Tulane, I guess that Arizona will use the brilliance of Noah Fifita to have offensive success.
I like his passing over. Darian Mensah finished last week 19-29 342 yards. Fifita has a great WR corps and the arm talent to
easily eclipse the 250-yard mark.
