Oklahoma State vs Houston Prediction
Oklahoma State has had moments here and there this season, and this line is massive. I considered the Cowboys and the points. However, Houston should be up for this game after losing to Texas Tech as a near double-digit favorite. Houston has covered seven of its last 10 games and is simply the better team on both sides of the ball. Houston also beat Oklahoma State in late December on the road by 13 points. Houston is 10-3 ATS in its last 13 games when favorites of 20 or more points. That record goes back to November 2023. Thick line, but it’s nothing Houston can’t get done. I’ll lay the points.
