Missouri State at Drake picks and predictions

Prediction

Drake 69, Missouri State 64

Moneyline

Not available, but with Drake likely costing you over 3 times your potential return it wouldn’t be playable anyway. If anything, Missouri State at major  plus odds might be worth a look.

Against the spread

MISSOURI STATE +7.5 (-105) is a good play with the points, as the Bears should be able to keep it within 4 buckets.

Drake -7.5 (-115) is just 1-5 ATS in the last 6 games as a favorite of 3-plus  points, including the 1st meeting with Missouri State on Jan. 1, a 52-49 loss. The Bulldogs are 3-9 ATS in the last 12 games overall, too.

Over/Under

OVER 127.5 (-115) is the play, as Drake has cashed the Over in 3 consecutive outings. However, this is worth a half-unit play at best.

The Under has dominated for Missouri State lately, and it cashed in the first meeting by a sizable margin, so play this lightly.

Missouri State at Oklahoma State odds, expert picks and prediction

Analyzing Saturday’s Missouri State at Oklahoma State odds and lines, with college football expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Missouri State Bears and Oklahoma State Cowboys meet Saturday at Boone Pickens Stadium in Stillwater, Okla. Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET and the game can be viewed on ESPN+. Below, we look at the Missouri State vs. Oklahoma State odds and lines, and make our expert college football picks, predictions and bets.

The Bears lost three games last fall and then played six contests in the spring. Missouri State won its final four regular-season games in March and April, including a 27-24 win over South Dakota; however, the Bears were bounced by North Dakota in the FCS playoffs.

The Cowboys won eight of 11 games in the fall. They have some big shoes to fill with RB Chuba Hubbard and WR Tylan Wallace moving on to the NFL, but at least QB Spencer Sanders is back. True freshmen twins WRs Blaine and Bryson Green are two players to watch. WR Brennan Presley will also work to fill Wallace’s shoes.

Missouri State at Oklahoma State odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Oklahoma State 45, Missouri State 13

Money line

PASS on the hefty money line price for the favorite. A $100 bet would return a profit of just 10 cents.

Against the spread

MISSOURI STATE +37.5 (-105) is the lean here, as Oklahoma State is traditionally a slow-starting team. The Cowboys were sluggish in a 16-7 win over Tulsa in last season’s opener, and they won 52-36 at Oregon State to begin the 2019 campaign.

The last time OK State faced Missouri State, it won 58-17 as 45-point favorites in 2018, as the Over connected. This Cowboys team is a little less talented than those Cowboys teams of the past.

Over/Under

OVER 55.5 (-110) is the lean in the opener. Oklahoma State has a good chance of helping Over bettors to a victory, as it will be looking to pass early and often with Sanders, especially since Hubbard is gone and the Cowboys won’t be able to lean on the run game as heavily.

Over bettors love pass-first teams, as the clock doesn’t run as much.
