Oklahoma State vs Baylor Prediction 3/1/25 College Basketball Picks

The Oklahoma State Cowboys and Baylor Bears meet on Saturday in college basketball action at Foster Pavilion. Here’s an Oklahoma State vs Baylor Prediction. This article will include an Oklahoma State vs Baylor Pick.

Oklahoma State Cowboys Betting Preview

The Oklahoma State Cowboys (14-14, 12-16 ATS) are having a disappointing second half of the season. In 2025, they failed to record consecutive wins, and it’s hard to expect the Cowboys to do so now against Baylor. Oklahoma State did win two of the last three games after defeating UCF and Iowa State, but the Cowboys have been without a road victory since December 8, 2024. Oklahoma State is 14th in the Big 12 Standings with the same record as UCF and two wins ahead of Arizona State.

Oklahoma State averages 73.1 PPG (223rd) and allows 76.4 PPG (303rd). The Cowboys are 224th in rebounds (35.0) and 291st in assists (12.8). Bryce Thompson leads the team with 12.4 PPG and 2.8 RPG. Abou Ousmane follows him with 12.3 PPG, a team-high 5.4 RPG, 1.1 SPG, and a team-high 1.0 BPG, while Marchelus Avery has 12.0 PPG and 4.6 RPG.

Baylor Bears Betting Preview

The Baylor Bears (16-12, 9-16-2 ATS) are having issues of their own. The Bears are going through their worst period of the season after losing three games in a row, their longest losing streak of the campaign. Baylor lost five of the past eight games and is back home from a two-game road trip on which they lost to Colorado and Cincinnati. Baylor is 8th in the Big 12 Standings with the same record as West Virginia and TCU but even eight games behind the top-placed Houston.

Baylor is averaging 78.1 PPG (81st) and is allowing 70.2 PPG (130th). The Bears are getting 35.8 RPG (185th) and dish out 15.1 APG (101st). Norchad Omier is the team’s top scorer with 15.8 PPG, a team-high 10.4 RPG, 2.1 APG, 1.3 SPG, and a team-high 1.0 BPG. VJ Edgecombe adds 14.8 PPG, 5.2 RPG, 3.4 APG, and a team-high 2.0 SPG, while Robert Wright III contributes 11.9 PPG, 2.2 RPG, a team-high 4.5 APG, and 1.1 SPG.

Why Oklahoma State will beat Baylor

• Baylor has lost each of its last five night games against the Big 12 Conference.

Oklahoma State vs Baylor Prediction

Baylor did beat Oklahoma State in four of the previous six H2H encounters, the Cowboys managed to cover three of those tilts. Although Oklahoma State has just two road victories this year and I am pretty sure they will lose this one as well, I am backing the Cowboys to cover. The Bears are struggling now; despite the fact they won 12 of the last 13 games at Foster Pavilion against non-AP-ranked opponents, the recent form is far from encouraging. Baylor is 9-16-2 against the spread, so I am going with Oklahoma State to cover.
