Tom Herman has the biggest game of his tenure at Texas, traveling to Stillwater to face off against No. 6 Oklahoma State. After starting 2-2 this season, the Longhorns were able to get back on track with a win against Baylor last week.
On the field performances have no been the only problem, as recruiting for Herman has started to fall apart. Crucial 2021 and 2022 blue-chip prospects have decided to decommit from Texas and head to schools such as Oklahoma and Ohio State.

To make up for it, the Longhorns must get a win against the Cowboys. Over the past decade, Oklahoma State has been able to take advantage of Texas, winning seven of the last 10 matchups. This will be the fourth time Mike Gundy’s squad will face an unranked Texas team in the same time period.
Oklahoma State remains the favorite in the game per BetMGM and has gained half a point. After being favored by three points earlier in the week, the Cowboys are up to 3.5 points. Even the over-under line has gone up a full point.
Here are the updated BetMGM odds before the Texas-Oklahoma State kickoff:
BetMGM Odds
Line: Oklahoma State (-3.5)
