I think kstate is better as well but dame is a "public" team and an unbeaten dame team would get bet more than an unbeaten kstate team that looks similar to dame in terms of quality. On top of that, dame is a better defensive team than kstate and there would likely be less scoring so a lower line would be more justifiable in my opinion.
Oregon is another level than those two in terms of talent and speed and will draw west coast love.
Michigan was a preseason top twenty team with a heisman trophy candidate for qb on a nuetral field and bama was laying 14 pts and covered and that was before anyone saw how good they were. You have the Sabin factor, sec having won six straight and that makes for a huge line against a couple of teams that have outperformed expectations but still may have some doubters.
I think a td and hook to each team at minimum. Heck if they had a black qb, I would say three tds?
