Oklahoma State Cowboys- Vegas Win Total- 7.5

This is another total that seems too low as this is the most talented Oklahoma State roster in recent memory and anything less than ten wins should be viewed as a disappointment. The schedule is also pretty favorable and assuming quarterback Spencer Sanders gets even slightly better this team can compete for a conference title. Prediction: Over 7.5

Top Prospects:

Chuba Hubbard, RB, 6-0, 201 pounds, Jr.: Hubbard earned All-American status after his first season as a starter and led all of the FBS running backs with 2,094 rushing yards. This insane production should be no surprise as we got a glimpse of his greatness in 2018 when he hit the 100 rushing yard mark in three of their last four games. Scoring 21 rushing touchdowns and averaging 6.4 yards per carry last season was an indicator that this Canadian maybe the most talented player in America. Named preseason Big-12 Offensive Player of the Year, Hubbard is a home run threat as evidenced by his FBS leading seven runs of 50 or more yards last season.

Tylan Wallace, WR, 6-0, 185 pounds, Sr.: A Biletnikoff Award finalist in 2018, Wallace was on pace for another 1,000-yard season in 2019 before a knee injury robbed him of the last five games. If he can come back at full strength, he should earn All-American honors and prove to be the best receiver in the country.

Josh Sills, G, 6-6, 338 pounds, Sr.: Another All-Big-12 selection, Sills will actually be entering his first and only season for the Cowboys after transferring from West Virginia, where he was a two-year starter.
