Oklahoma State vs Texas Prediction
The current betting odds have Texas listed as an 8 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. Texas has had a few slip ups this year but mainly against ranked opponents as they have been a very solid team with their 16-3 record overall. They have been doing well in conference play too with a 5-2 record and they have really played their best at home this year with an 11-1 home record. Oklahoma State is only 11-8 this season as they have been struggling a lot and they are even 3-4 in their conference games too. They have been terrible in road games with a 1-4 road record and they don't have the talent on their team to compete with one of the best teams in the country here on their home court. Oklahoma State has done a good job at keeping games close at home but they haven't been as good in road games while Texas has been blowing out a lot of teams on their home court this year. The best way to place a bet here is on Texas to cover the spread in this game.

Notable Quotes
"Now, are guys made some plays, no doubt about it. So, I don't want to kill them. That's not what this is about. It's about just giving recognition to the energy in the building today. And I think we fed off that and it kept us afloat enough to make the plays that we needed to make to end the game." - Mike Boynton after his team’s win against Iowa State in their last game.
"Just another night in the Big 12 against a hall-of-fame coach. A coach that we have a tremendous amount of respect for, coming off a big win this past week against a really good TCU team. We knew that they were gonna be ready to play. We were gonna have to come out and bring our best game tonight in terms of how hard we were gonna try to compete and have an incredible, competitive spirit. This wasn’t gonna be easy." - Rodney Terry after his team’s win against WVU in their last game.
