Oklahoma State at Texas picks and predictions

Prediction

Texas 70, Oklahoma State 63

Moneyline

AVOID.

Texas is 11-1 at home while Oklahoma State is 2-4 on the road. These odds are justified, but they are also unplayable.

Against the spread

LEAN OKLAHOMA STATE +8.5 (-115).

The Cowboys have been better at covering as of late, beating a top-15 Iowa State at home and downing Oklahoma the game prior. They have covered 6 of their last 9. Despite being solid at home, Texas has failed to cover its last 4 home games, 3 of which were against Big 12 opponents.

Texas is just 5-7 ATS at home this season while Oklahoma State is 3-3 ATS on the road. Oklahoma State has the edge in conference play as well as it is 4-3 ATS compared to Texas’ 2-5 ATS.

Put it all together and back OKLAHOMA STATE +8.5 (-115).

Over/Under

BET UNDER 135.5 (-110).

Oklahoma State has a dominant defense, but has a struggling road attack. It has scored only 58 and 57 points in its last 2 road matches against Baylor and Kansas State. It has gone Under the projected total in 6 of its last 7 games.

Texas is 2-2-1 O/U in its last 5 games, scoring more than 72 in just 2 of its last 5. Texas is 4-2-1 O/U in conference games while Oklahoma State is 1-6 O/U.

Given the Cowboys struggles offensively on the road and strength defensively, back the UNDER 135.5 (-110).

Iowa State at Oklahoma State odds, picks and predictions

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

The No. 12 Iowa State Cyclones (14-3, 5-1 Big 12) battle the Oklahoma State Cowboys (10-8, 2-4) Saturday. Tip from Gallagher-Iba Arena is set for 2 p.m. ET. Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Iowa State vs. Oklahoma State odds, and make our expert college basketball picks, predictions and bets.

Iowa State beat Texas 78-67 Tuesday, covering as a 2.5-point home favorite. The Cyclones are 12-5 against the spread (ATS) this season and 2-2 straight up on the road. They have covered 6-straight games, 3 of which have been away. Their strength is defense, ranking 8th in the nation in opponents’ points per game (58.5).

Oklahoma State, on the other hand, crushed Oklahoma 72-56 Wednesday, covering as a 2-point home favorite. It is 9-9 ATS on the season and 5-3 ATS over its last 8 games. The Cowboys’ strength is defense as well, ranking 4th in the nation in opponents’ field goal percentage (37.2%).

Iowa State at Oklahoma State picks and predictions

Prediction

Iowa State 66, Oklahoma State 62

Moneyline

PASS.

I like Iowa State to win, and it doesn’t have a 1-point win this season. Back the spread here.

Against the spread

BET IOWA STATE -1.5 (+100).

The Cyclones have won 6 of their last 7, and their lone loss was a 2-point defeat on the road at the hands of Kansas. They have beaten both Oklahoma and TCU on the road in their past 5 games. Iowa State’s defense is why it is legit, but the offense has scored 69 or more points in 3 of its last 4 games and is coming around.

Similarly, while OSU is 7-2 at home, it has lost 3 of its last 4 games, including a 56-46 home loss against Texas. Considering its Big 12 struggles with the Cyclones surging as of late, back IOWA STATE -1.5 (+100).

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 125.5 (-110).

OSU scored 72 in its last battle with Oklahoma, a game that went Over the 127.5 projected total. It is just 6-11-1 O/U this season, and while ISU is 6-11, it has gone Over in 5 of its last 7. ISU is 4-2 O/U in conference games.

The books have realized how good its defense is and adjusted the totals respectively. Considering the ISU trends lately and the low total, back the OVER 125.5 (-110).

Oklahoma State at Kansas State odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Tuesday’s Oklahoma State at Kansas State odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Oklahoma State Cowboys (9-6, 1-2 Big 12) battle the No. 13 Kansas State Wildcats (14-1, 3-0) on Tuesday. Tip from Bramlage Coliseum is set for 7 p.m. ET. Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Oklahoma State vs. Kansas State odds, and make our expert college basketball picks, predictions and bets.

Oklahoma State fell 56-46 to Texas on Saturday, failing to cover as 3-point home underdogs. In its last 10 games, it is 7-3 against the spread (ATS) and 8-7 ATS on the season. The Cowboys’ defense is their strength, ranking 3rd in the nation in opponents FG percentage (36.4%) and 14th in the nation in opponents 3-point FG percentage (28.4%).

Kansas State knocked off Baylor 97-95 in overtime on Saturday, covering as 7.5-point road underdogs. The Wildcats have covered the spread in each of their last 3 games and 6 times in their last 7. Overall this season, they are 10-5 ATS. The Wildcats’ offense ranks top-40 in the nation in points per game (79.7) and FG percentage (47.92%).

Oklahoma State at Kansas State picks and predictions

Prediction

Kansas State 77, Oklahoma State 69

Moneyline

PASS.

There is not enough return on investment to make a moneyline play worth the risk.

Against the spread

LEAN KANSAS STATE -5.5 (-105).

The Wildcats are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games overall and 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games against teams with a winning straight up record. Playing at home against a team with a top-ranked defense, they will look to get the ball into the paint for easier points.

Kansas State has played great in front of its fans this season, with a home record of 8-0.

Over/Under

BET OVER 137.5 (-110).

The Over/Under is 8-2 in the Wildcats’ last 10 games and 9-6 over the season. Scoring 79.7 points per game, they look to push the ball and put points on the board at a higher rate than most teams.

For the Cowboys, the Over is 5-0 in their last 5 games against teams with a winning straight up record meaning they rise to the occasion against better teams. They will need to put the ball in the basket to keep up with a top-ranked Kansas State team.

West Virginia at Oklahoma State odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Monday’s West Virginia at Oklahoma State odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The No. 24 West Virginia Mountaineers (10-3, 0-1 Big-12) travel to Stillwater to take on the Oklahoma State Cowboys (8-5, 0-1) Monday at 7 p.m. ET (ESPNU). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the West Virginia vs.  Oklahoma State odds, and make our expert college basketball picks, predictions and bets.

Ratings courtesy of USA TODAY Sports Coaches Poll

After an 82-76 overtime loss to Kansas State (-1.5) on Saturday, West Virginia looks to gain its first Big-12 win of the season on Monday night against Oklahoma State. The Cowboys, coming off a 69-67 loss (but +9.5 cover) to No. 4 Kansas on Saturday, are also looking for their 1st conference win.

While West Virginia looks once again to be a tournament team, Oklahoma State will need wins like this game to help them accomplish that goal.

West Virginia at Oklahoma State picks and predictions

Prediction

West Virginia 75, Oklahoma State 71

Moneyline

BET WEST VIRGINIA (+122).

The Mountaineers average 80.9 points per game on the season while the Cowboys are averaging 71.3. West Virginia also makes 37.2% of its 3-point shots, which will be the key Monday. Oklahoma State should not be favored in this game. Yet it is, so, give me the underdog Mountaineers to win outright.

Against the spread

PASS.

With the feeling that West Virginia will win this game, I will plus-money moneyline.

Over/Under

BET OVER 138.5 (-115).

While both defenses are solid, both offenses are better.

Oklahoma State allows on average 62.1 PPG while West Virginia scores almost 81. On the other side of the ball, the Cowboys have averaged 71.3 points while the Mountaineers have allowed 67.5 points. The offenses will be able to score in this game and another Over is coming for these 2 teams.

The Cowboys are 5-7-1 to the Over this season and West Virginia is 10-3. The Mountaineers will be able to set the pace in this game and this means an Over is the outcome. Over 138.5 (-115) is my favorite play in this game.

Guaranteed Rate Bowl: Oklahoma State vs. Wisconsin odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Tuesday’s Oklahoma State vs. Wisconsin Guaranteed Rate Bowl odds and lines, with expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Wisconsin Badgers (6-6) and No. 22 Oklahoma State Cowboys (7-5) meet in the Guaranteed Rate Bowl Tuesday at the Chase Field in Phoenix. Kickoff is scheduled for 10:15 p.m. ET (ESPN). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Wisconsin vs. Oklahoma State odds, and make our expert college football picks and predictions.

Wisconsin limps into bowl season after dropping 2 of the final 3 games, including rivalry games for Paul Bunyan’s axe against Minnesota, and the Heartdale Trophy against Iowa. The Badgers are on an 0-3 ATS skid, too, cashing the Under in 3 of the final 4 outings.

The Badgers have performed well in bowl games of late, going 7-1 SU in 8 outings dating back to Jan. 1, 2015. That includes a 20-13 win over Arizona State in the Las Vegas Bowl last season, although it just failed to cover at most shops as a 7.5-point favorite.

Oklahoma State does a little limping of its own into bowl season. The Cowboys dropped the final 2 games, falling to West Virginia in the finale 24-19 while getting blasted 28-13 at Oklahoma in its annual Bedlam rivalry game. OSU is 1-4 SU/ATS in its last 5 games.

Like the Badgers, the Cowboys have also been red-hot in postseason games. Oklahoma State has won 5 of its past 6 bowl appearances, including a 37-35 win in the Fiesta Bowl over Notre Dame last season. The Cowboys are perfect (6-0) ATS in the last 6 bowl games.

This game features a lot of players who have entered the transfer portal, and 1 major star is injured, too.

Wisconsin’s list of players out for Tuesday’s game include RB Braelon Allen (1,121 rushing yards, 10 rush TD) due to injury, while those notable players hitting the transfer portal include WR Markus Allen, QB Graham Mertz (2,136 passing yards, 19 TD) and RB Isaac Guerendo (390 rushing yards, 5 rush TD) on offense. Guerendo was also the primary kick return guy, too.

On defense, Wisconsin’s NT Keeanu Benton (20 solo tackles, 4.5 sacks) and LB Nick Herbig (32 solo tackles, 11 sacks, 2 forced fumbles) declared for the NFL Draft and are out.

Oklahoma State’s leading passer QB Spencer Sanders (2,652 passing yards, 17 TD, 391 rushing yards, 8 TD) is out after entering the portal, as is leading rusher RB Dominic Richardson (543 rushing yards, 8 rush TD) and leading receiver WR Braylin Presley (61 catches, 739 receiving yards, 2 TD).

On D, Oklahoma State lost leading tackler LB Mason Cobb (96 total tackles, 2 sacks, 1 INT, 1 forced fumble) to the portal, as well as DE Tyler Lacy (27 total tackles, 3 sacks, 1 fumble recovery).

Wisconsin vs. Oklahoma State odds

Provided by Tipico Sportsbook; access USA TODAY Sports Scores and Sports Betting Odds hub for a full list. Lines last updated Monday at 1:51 p.m. ET.

  • Moneyline (ML): Wisconsin -170 (bet $170 to win $100) | Oklahoma State +145 (bet $100 to win $145)
  • Against the spread (ATS): Wisconsin -3 (-118) | Oklahoma State +3 (-102)
  • Over/Under (O/U): 44.5 (O: -111 | U: -109)

Wisconsin vs. Oklahoma State picks and predictions

Prediction

Oklahoma State 23, Wisconsin 19

Moneyline

OKLAHOMA STATE (+145) is worth a roll of the dice as short ‘dogs in this bowl game. The Cowboys usually show out in bowl games, posting a 21-11 SU all-time record in bowl games, but that’s not why they’re the play.

Wisconsin (-170) suffered much heavier losses on their side due to the transfer portal, opt outs and a big injury to Braelon Allen. It’s too much to handle. QB Chase Wolf is expected to start, and he was 2-of-6 for 21 yards in his lone appearance this season.

The Cowboys likely will see a combination of veteran QB Garret Rangel and the coach’s son, QB Gunnar Gundy, under center. They have a touch more experience than Wolf, and they won’t have to deal with Benton and Herbig breathing down their necks.

Against the spread

OKLAHOMA STATE +3 (-102) would be a little more attractive at +3.5, but it’s not a bad play catching the 3 points. The better value is playing the money line straight up, however.

Over/Under

UNDER 44.5 (-109) is the lean here, as both teams will have some inexperience under center, while both sides also do not have their leading rusher, either.

It’s hard to imagine who is going to be moving the chains on either side. Of course, there are some big defensive players on both sides missing, too, which could open things up.

Go Under, but go a little lightly, mostly just due to the roster uncertainty. The guys who are playing are going to want to show out, and we could see some surprising performances.

Oklahoma State vs. Virginia Tech odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Oklahoma State vs. Virginia Tech odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Oklahoma State Cowboys (6-3) travel to the Big Apple for a neutral site game Sunday against the Virginia Tech Hokies (9-1). Tip-off at Madison Square Gardens is 2 p.m. ET (ESPN2). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Oklahoma State vs. Virginia Tech odds, and make our expert college basketball picks, predictions and bets.

With only 1 loss — on the road against the College of Charleston 77-75 in the finals of the Charleston Classic — Virginia Tech is on the verge of cracking the top 25 and a win over the Cowboys could be just the push to get them there.

After beating UNC 80-72 last Sunday as 1-point underdogs, Virginia Tech did not fall victim to a hangover in its next matchup and blew out Dayton 77-49 and covered the 7-point spread by 21 points.

Oklahoma State, after losing 74-64 to No. 5 UConn 74-64 on Dec. 1, returned home to beat Sam Houston State 65-51 as an 8-point favorite. It returns to the northeast for this game, and it will be another difficult challenge for the Cowboys.

Oklahoma State vs. Virginia Tech picks and predictions

Prediction

Virginia Tech 66, Oklahoma State 63

Moneyline

PASS.

Oklahoma State can win this game, but my feeling is the Hokies will win and cover which makes me not want to use the ML wager here. If you are entering a parlay though, VT moneyline is a good addition.

Against the spread

BET VIRGINIA TECH -2.5 (-110).

Neither of these teams have been scoring a lot of points this season as a rule. But the Hokies had 80 against the Tar Heels and 77 against Dayton. I trust its scoring a bit more then the Cowboys and with the Cowboys making a 2nd trip in as many weeks to the East Coast, I like the Hokies to win this game by at least 3 points. But not much more than 3. VT -2.5 (-110) is my play here.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 133.5 (-115).

As I said, neither of these teams score in buckets. The Hokies are 6 of 10 to the Under this season while the Cowboys are 5 of 9. This will be another lower-scoring game between 2 teams which want to control the clock. Under 133.5 (-115) is my favorite play here.

Oklahoma State at UConn odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Thursday’s Oklahoma State at UConn odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Oklahoma State Cowboys (5-2) visit Storrs to take on the No. 6 UConn Huskies (8-0) Thursday at 6:30 p.m. ET (FS1). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Oklahoma State vs. UConn odds, and make our expert college basketball picks, predictions and bets.

UConn returns home after crushing its way through the Phil Knight Invitational in Portland. After beating Oregon by 24 points (83-59 as 3.5-point favorites Nov. 24), the Huskies upset then-No. 18 Alabama by 15 points (82-67 as 2-point underdogs Friday) to get to the title game. There, they topped Iowa State 71-53 Sunday, covering the spread as 5.5-point favorites.

This allowed the Huskies to make a massive leap in the USA TODAY Sports Coaches Poll from No. 22 to No. 6.

Oklahoma State has not had a stellar start to the season, already picking up 2 losses in non-conference play. The Cowboys lost at home to Southern Illinois 61-60 Nov. 10 and to UCF 60-56 in overtime in a 1st-round game at the Bahamas Championship Nov. 18. OK State was favored in both losses, by 8 points vs. SIU and by 6 points vs. UCF.

The Cowboys have had trouble scoring with 4 of their 7 games going Under, while UConn has had 5 of its 8 games cash Over tickets.

The Huskies are on a roll. This could be another game in which a team gets no closer than 15 points at the final buzzer against them.

Oklahoma State at UConn picks and predictions

Prediction

UConn 81, Oklahoma State 67

Moneyline

PASS.

This will be a happy homecoming for the 6th-rankred Huskies (-475). However, the price is not the way to go here. It’s too expensive and not worth the risk.

Oklahoma State (+325) would be a nice payout, but it will not hit if UConn plays the way it has been so far from this season.

Against the spread

BET UCONN -8.5 (-110).

UConn and potential player of the year F Adama Sanogo will take control of this game early.

The Cowboys have not played a difficult schedule. Yet, they have 2 losses against the likes of Southern Illinois and UCF.

UConn is far better than either of those schools and it should win another double-digit contest in this matchup. Oklahoma State has a lot to improve and not enough time to do so before this one.

UCONN -8.5 (-110) is my FAVORITE PLAY.

Over/Under

BET OVER 135.5 (-105).

UConn has scored 80 or more points in 7 of 8 games this season. The Huskies will force the pace and the Cowboys will be forced to try and follow the leader.

With UConn likely to get to 80 again, Oklahoma State just needs to hit 56 for this to cash.

It will. TAKE OVER 135.5 (-110).

The Cowboys check in No. 22 in the College Football Playoff rankings.

Oklahoma State won 20-14 against Iowa State, as QB Spencer Sanders (personal) returned to action in the 4th quarter last week. He asked into the game and led the comeback after sitting out the first 3 quarters after missing practice during the week.

Oklahoma suffered another loss last week, falling 23-20 at West Virginia, a second straight 3-point setback. The Sooners are now 2-5 SU and 1-6 ATS across the past 7 contests. The Under and Over has alternated in each of the past 6 outings.

Oklahoma State at Oklahoma picks and predictions

Prediction

Oklahoma State 36, Oklahoma 33

Moneyline

OKLAHOMA STATE (+200) is the ranked team here, and the Cowboys are playing slightly better than rival Oklahoma.

The Cowboys’ offense should see a bounce back against a Sooners defense that is allowing 432.3 total yards per game to rank 109th, especially with Sanders expected to play. The Oklahoma defense has been gouged for 200.2 rushing yards to check in 119th, too.

Against the spread

OKLAHOMA STATE +7 (-114) is a super attractive play.

The Cowboys have cashed in 10 of the past 12 games on the road while going 13-4-1 ATS in the past 18 games inside the conference. On the flip side, the Sooners are 1-6 ATS in the past 8 games overall, and 1-6-1 ATS in the past 8 Big 12 games, while going 0-5 ATS in the past 5 at home.

This is a gift, so take advantage.

Over/Under

Play OVER 67 (-110) is the lean, but go lightly.

The Oklahoma State offense is averaging 34.9 PPG to rank 25th in the country, while the Cowboys are allowing 30.0 PPG to rank 101st.

While the Oklahoma offense has been erratic, it is still good for 31.9 PPG, ranking 42nd in the nation, while allowing 29.1 PPG to check in 93rd.

This should be a track meet in one of the final bedlam meetings before Oklahoma departs for the SEC in 2025 and ends the series, at least on a regular basis.

Oklahoma State at Kansas odds, picks and predictions

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

The Oklahoma State Cowboys (6-2, 3-2 Big 12) travel to Lawrence to battle the Kansas Jayhawks (5-3, 2-3) Saturday at 3:30 p.m. ET (FS1). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Oklahoma State vs. Kansas  odds, and make our expert college football picks and predictions.

Oklahoma State is No. 18 in the AFCA Coaches Poll powered by USA TODAY sports and No.  18 in the College Football Playoff rankings.

The Cowboys come into this matchup with 2 losses on the season, both to teams they are trailing in the Big 12 title race. The last of these losses came last Saturday when coach Mike Gundy suffered his worst loss ever — a 48-0 stomping at the hands of Kansas State. The Pokes look to get back on track behind QB Spencer Sanders this week against a fading Kansas squad.

What started off as a great story for Kansas has turned sour. No one thought they would get to 5 wins. The preseason total was 2.5. Saying this, once there Kansas hoped to keep things going. Unfortunately, the Jayhawks have crashed into the meat of their schedule and are on a 3-game losing streak.

The Jayhawks will need to play much better and hope for some turnover help from the Cowboys if they hope to pull off an upset on Saturday.

Oklahoma State at Kansas picks and predictions

Prediction

Oklahoma State 37, Kansas 29

Moneyline

BET OKLAHOMA STATE (-105)

Oklahoma looked terrible last week. By the 2nd half, they were just playing to get out of the game healthy. They will have a different mindset this week as they need this game to remain in the Big 12 title contention.

Kansas, the loser of 3 straight games, comes into this game with a lack of motivation and a lack of matching talent. The beginning of the season for the Jayhawks was awesome. But it is now in the past. The Pokes are the better, more desperate team. The ML number moved from Oklahoma State -125 to the current number, making it my favorite play in this game.

Against the spread

PASS.

If the Pokes do win, it will be by more than 1 so the extra juice is not worth it. Might as well just take the Cowboys straight up.

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 63.5 (-110)

These teams can both score. Despite the Cowboys being shut out 48-0 last week, this was just 1 week removed from them putting 41 on Texas.

Even with Kansas losing, they are still scoring. In its last game, Kansas was beaten by Baylor 35-23. With the offense of Oklahoma State set to put up points, 23 should be enough in this one to put the game over

Oklahoma State at Kansas State odds, picks and predictions

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

The No. 9 Oklahoma State Cowboys (6-1, 3-1 Big 12) and the No. 22 Kansas State Wildcats (5-2, 3-1) play Saturday at Bill Snyder Family Stadium in Manhattan, Kan. Kickoff is scheduled for 3:30 p.m. ET (FOX). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Oklahoma State vs. Kansas State odds, and make our expert college football picks and predictions.

The Cowboys rebounded nicely with a 41-34 win over Texas, making up for a 43-40 OT setback at TCU which left a bad taste in their collective mouths. This OSU offense is strong, going for 34 or more points in all 7 games, cashing the Over 6 times overall.

The Wildcats are hanging on to a top-25 spot despite losing at TCU 38-28 last time out. The loss for K-State came after a bye, so that was a difficult pill to swallow. Kansas State is 3-1 SU/ATS at home, with its lone loss to fellow top-25 team Tulane.

Oklahoma State at Kansas State picks and predictions

Prediction

Oklahoma State 38, Kansas State 35

Moneyline

OKLAHOMA STATE (+105) is a value play here at plus-money, as I don’t think Kansas State (-130) is anywhere near as explosive on offense.

The Cowboys have registered 34 or more points on offense all 7 games this season, and the only concern is whether the defense can make things happen. OSU has been dinged for 31 or more points in each of the last 3 outings.

Kansas State’s offense has been inconsistent this season, and the pass game is nearly non-existent with 169.3 yards per game, ranking 118th out of 131 FBS teams. The run game is amazing, but that’s where Oklahoma State actually is decent on D.

Against the spread

OKLAHOMA STATE +1.5 (-108) doesn’t make a lot of sense to play unless you are absolutely convinced Kansas State (-112) is going to win by exactly 1 point. Just roll with the money line instead, and get plus-money.

Over/Under

OVER 55.5 (-110) is easily the best play on the board.

Oklahoma State’s offense hasn’t been slowed down much at any point this season, and Kansas State isn’t about to change that. And the Cowboys have been terrible on D, allowing 449.6 total yards per game. If the Wildcats can actually pass, this game will be easily in the 60’s or 70’s before the dust settles.
