ChatGPT prediction for Kansas State Wildcats vs Colorado Buffaloes, 29 November 2025.
Kansas State has urgency and form on its side. Fresh off a 51-47 shootout with Utah, the Wildcats are still hunting bowl eligibility at 5-6, while Colorado limps in at 3-8 after a 42-17 collapse to Arizona State.
Avery Johnson’s dual-threat rhythm (2,270 yards, 18 TDs; plus 441 rushing and 8 TDs) pairs with Joe Jackson’s downhill punch and Jayce Brown’s chain-moving reliability. That’s trouble for a CU defense yielding 31.1 ppg, 435+ yards, and a glaring 224 rushing yards per game, with only 17 takeaways. Meanwhile, K-State’s defense has generated 25 turnovers, often flipping fields.
The model leans 34-20 and -17.5 on the spread, aligning with a hefty moneyline of 1.11. The Buffs’ price at 6.94 is tempting, but their fourth-quarter fades and soft run front make the underdog lift unlikely. The most reliable $1 play is the Wildcats’ moneyline, even for a modest return.

Gemini prediction for Kansas State Wildcats vs Colorado Buffaloes, 29 November 2025.
This Big 12 finale has massive implications for one team and serves as a final chapter for the other. The Kansas State Wildcats, sitting at 5-6, need a victory to secure bowl eligibility, providing immense motivation. Their offense, averaging nearly 30 points per game, is poised to exploit a significant mismatch.
Colorado's defense has been its Achilles' heel all season, surrendering over 31 points and a staggering 435 yards per contest. The Buffaloes are particularly vulnerable against the run, allowing 224 rushing yards per game, which plays directly into the hands of a Kansas State offense featuring dual-threat QB Avery Johnson and running back Joe Jackson.
While Colorado's offense has a bright spot in RB Omarion Miller, their overall production (21.5 ppg) is unlikely to keep pace. Kansas State's opportunistic defense, which has forced 25 turnovers, should be able to create extra possessions and seal the game. The prohibitive 1.11 moneyline reflects the lopsided nature of this matchup; all signs point to a comfortable home win for the Wildcats.

Claude prediction for Kansas State Wildcats vs Colorado Buffaloes, 29 November 2025.
Kansas State enters this crucial bowl eligibility game with everything to play for, while Colorado limps in at 3-8 after a devastating 42-17 home loss to Arizona State. The Wildcats' balanced offense averaging nearly 30 points per game should feast on Colorado's porous defense that surrenders 31.1 points and 224 rushing yards per contest.
Quarterback Avery Johnson's dual-threat ability (2,270 passing yards, 441 rushing yards) gives Kansas State multiple ways to attack the Buffaloes' vulnerable secondary. Colorado's offense has managed just 21.5 points per game, creating a significant mismatch.
With Kansas State holding a 1.11 moneyline advantage and needing this win for postseason hopes, expect the Wildcats to control this game from start to finish against an overmatched Colorado squad that has struggled defensively all season.

Grok prediction for Kansas State Wildcats vs Colorado Buffaloes, 29 November 2025.
As the Kansas State Wildcats gear up for their crucial Big 12 showdown against the Colorado Buffaloes, the stakes couldn't be higher. With a 5-6 record and bowl eligibility on the line, the Wildcats are hungry after a narrow 51-47 loss to Utah. Their offense, averaging nearly 30 points per game, is led by dual-threat QB Avery Johnson, who's racked up 2,270 passing yards and 18 TDs, plus 441 rushing yards.
On the flip side, the 3-8 Buffaloes are reeling from a 42-17 drubbing by Arizona State, where their defense crumbled, allowing massive yards. Colorado's D is a sieve, giving up 31.1 points and over 435 yards per game, especially vulnerable against the run at 224 yards allowed.
Betting odds heavily favor Kansas State at 1.11, implying a 90.1% win probability, while Colorado lags at 6.94. The FOX Sports model predicts a 34-20 Wildcats victory, and with K-State's turnover-forcing defense (25 this season) against Colorado's weak offense (just 21.5 points per game), I'm backing the Wildcats to dominate and secure that bowl spot.

DeepSeek prediction for Kansas State Wildcats vs Colorado Buffaloes, 29 November 2025.
Kansas State's explosive offense, led by dual-threat QB Avery Johnson and RB Joe Jackson, should shred a Colorado defense allowing 31.1 points and over 435 yards per game. The Buffaloes' recent fourth-quarter collapse against Arizona State highlights their defensive frailties, while the Wildcats' 25 forced turnovers this season could create extra possessions. With Kansas State fighting for bowl eligibility and the model projecting a 34-20 victory, their motivation and offensive firepower make them the clear choice at 1.11.
Colorado's offensive inconsistency and inability to protect leads make them unreliable underdogs, despite their tempting 6.94 odds. The Wildcats' balanced attack and Colorado's porous run defense—surrendering 224 rushing yards per game—create a mismatch that Kansas State should exploit from start to finish.

Qwen prediction for Kansas State Wildcats vs Colorado Buffaloes, 29 November 2025.
Kansas State Wildcats enter this matchup with a clear edge on both sides of the ball. Their offense, led by dual-threat quarterback Avery Johnson and bolstered by a strong rushing attack, should exploit Colorado's leaky defense, which is surrendering over 31 points per game. The Buffaloes' secondary has been particularly vulnerable, giving up 211 passing yards per contest, and Kansas State’s efficient passing game could pile on the points. Defensively, the Wildcats have forced 25 turnovers this season, showcasing their ability to create momentum-shifting plays, while Colorado has struggled to protect the ball.
On the other hand, Colorado’s offense has lacked consistency, averaging just 21.5 points per game. While running back Omarion Miller provides some spark, the overall production hasn’t been enough to keep up in competitive games. Facing a Kansas State defense allowing under 28 points per game, Colorado will likely struggle to sustain drives or score frequently enough to cover the sizable spread.
The odds reflect this disparity, with Kansas State sitting at a steep moneyline of 1.11, compared to Colorado’s 6.94. While betting on such heavy favorites can feel risky, Kansas State’s urgency to secure bowl eligibility combined with Colorado’s defensive struggles makes them a near-lock to win outright.
Given the circumstances, backing Kansas State to win is the most logical choice despite the lopsided odds.
