West Virginia at Oklahoma State picks and predictions
Prediction
Oklahoma State 38, West Virginia 31
Moneyline
PASS.
There is better value on the Oklahoma State (-150) spread.
Against the spread
BET OKLAHOMA STATE -3 (-110).
While the Cowboys were taken down by Kansas State last week, they went into halftime down by just 1 point. Expect them to bounce back with a vengeance this week in front of their home crowd to snap their losing streak. West Virginia is coming off of a long rest, which may make the game interesting, but Oklahoma State will prevail with enough room to cover.
Over/Under
LEAN OVER 64.5 (-110).
This is a high Over, however both teams are more than capable of hitting it. The Mountaineers have scored 32 points or more in each of their last 3 games, hitting the Over in each game, and allowing 28 points or more in back-to-back weeks.
Oklahoma State has scored 39 or more points in 3 of its 5 games while allowing 31 points in 2 of its last 4. In what should be a back-and-forth game, expect a lot of scoring.
