Pick

Texas comes into this game after winning four of their last five games, while Oklahoma State has won two games in a row. Oklahoma State is coming off of a very nice win against Iowa State, but they have struggled to score in recent games. Texas has played in a good amount of close games this year, but they have been able to win most of them. I am going to take Oklahoma State with the points, as we are going to see Texas in another tight game.
