Oral Roberts vs. Oklahoma State Prediction

I’m on the over here. Oral Roberts has been getting demolished defensively against almost everyone they’ve gone up against this season, and I think Oklahoma State’s good enough to get it done here. On the other side, This is a huge number for Oklahoma State to be laying and while I do lean their way in terms of the side, I think a number like this leaves the backdoor wide open and I think Oral Roberts could at least score enough to get us up and over this number. Give me the over.
