The Oklahoma State Cowboys (3-8, 0-8 Big 12) take on the Colorado Buffaloes (8-3, 6-2) at Folsom Field Friday. Kickoff is set for noon ET (ABC). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s college football odds around the Oklahoma State vs. Colorado odds, and make our expert college football picks and predictions.
The Cowboys have lost 8 straight games after Texas Tech wiped them out 56-48 Saturday. They failed to cover as 4.5-point dogs. QB Maealiuaki Smith was 26-for-36 for 326 yards, 2 TDs and 1 INT. He also ran in a touchdown. RB Ollie Gordon rushed 15 times for 156 yards and 3 TDs, and he caught 3 balls for 30 yards.
The Buffs were euthanized by Kansas 37-21 Saturday, effectively ending their playoff hopes. They couldn’t stop Kansas RB Devin Neal, who rushed 37 times for 207 yards and 3 TDs. Colorado QB Shedeur Sanders was great, going 23-for-29 for 266 yards and 3 TDs. He connected with WR Travis Hunter 8 times for 125 yards and 2 TDs. The defeat dropped Colorado out of the top 25.

Oklahoma State at Colorado picks and predictions
Prediction
Colorado 38, Oklahoma State 24
Moneyline
There is some concern that Colorado would take its foot off the gas with no playoff hopes, but Coach Prime has said that his sons and Hunter would play in a potential bowl game. So Colorado should win, but this number is way too high.
I think Sanders’ passing number is, too. Take SHEDEUR SANDERS UNDER 334.5 PASSING YARDS (-115). He has only topped this number once in the last 5 games.
Against the spread
Oklahoma State is really bad this year. The Cowboys are just 2-8 ATS in their last 10, but they had an impressive cover at BYU and destroyed Tulsa. I think they’ll show up and cover the lofty spread. Take OKLAHOMA STATE +16.5 (-110).

Over/Under
OK State is 7-4 O/U this season, and Colorado is 6-4-1. After it put up 48 on Texas Tech, I’ve gained confidence in Oklahoma State’s offense, but 66.5 is a monstrous number. It falls just short.
LEAN UNDER 66.5 (-110).
