2. Oklahoma at Baylor, Oklahoma State at Kansas, Kansas State at Texas
POINT TOTALS OU-Baylor 61.5, OSU-KU 64.5, Texas-K-State 54.5
PICK Over, Over, Over
As I always tell my cohosts on the show I do on Saturdays – 4-8 ET on the BetQL network – where you can essentially enjoy wisdom like this piece in radio/video form …
DO … NOT … DO … PARLAYS.
“But there was this one time when …”
DO … NOT … DO … PARLAYS.
There’s a city in Nevada whose economy survives on desperation, dreams, and just-missed parlays.
Of course no one listens to me, but just go the single game wager route and you’ll be ahead. I know you won’t, so for this I’m combining all three of these games in this one slot.
In case you haven’t noticed, every Big 12 game that doesn’t involve Iowa State is almost always 38ish-34ish, and when it doesn’t happen, something malfunctioned at a near-historic, blindsiding level.
(Seriously, Oklahoma State? Kansas State hangs up 48 and you can’t do anything?)
I can’t in good conscience include Texas Tech at TCU at 69.5. That’s too high considering the Red Raider QB situation. However, mix and match the six teams above and you’re likely to get a point total of 70 or so no matter what.
TCU averages a Big 12-best 44.3 points per game. Oklahoma State, even after that shutout debacle last week, averages 39.1 per game.
Baylor (38.4), Kansas (38), Texas (36.4), Oklahoma (33) all know how to score.
So if I’m telling you – BEGGING you – not to parlay, I like the games in this order for the over: Baylor at Oklahoma (61.5), Oklahoma State at Kansas (64.5), Texas at Kansas State (54.5).
