Tulsa at Oklahoma State: Odds, betting lines and picks
Prediction
Oklahoma State 42, Tulsa 14
Money line (ML)
Oklahoma State (-1429) is a huge favorite in this one, and it’s not hard to see why. Tulsa went just 4-8 last season, including a 40-21 loss to the Cowboys earlier in the year. Oklahoma State has won the last five meetings between these two teams, and the talent disparity is significant. However, PASS on the moneyline bet here as it just doesn’t provide enough value on either side.
Against the Spread (ATS)
OKLAHOMA STATE (-23.5, -110) are more than three-touchdown favorites over Tulsa in the first game of the season for both squads. OSU should have one of the best offenses in the Big 12 and shouldn’t have any problems scoring in this contest. It’s worth noting that Oklahoma State has covered in five of their last six games, and this one could be over quickly. Take the Cowboys here to cover the 23.5 point spread.
Over/Under (O/U)
The total for this contest is set at 66.5 points (-110), which feels a bit high considering how shaky Tulsa’s offense is at the moment. At the same time, the under has hit in five of the last six games involving the Cowboys dating back to the 2019 season. With Tulsa likely not to score more than 20 points in this game, take the UNDER as Oklahoma State will have to do almost all of the scoring in this game.
