Why Bet on the Texas Longhorns?

Don’t let Texas’ 36.7 points per game average fool you. Although it’s less than what Oklahoma State scores per game, it’s good enough for the Horns. More importantly, Texas has played the overall much better defenses than the Cowboys’ offense. Texas scored 19 against Alabama, 49 against Oklahoma, and 24 versus Iowa State.

Those three teams have good defenses. Iowa State’s and Bama’s defenses are great. Also, starter Quin Ewers returned to the lineup in Texas’ last. Ewers threw 3 TD passes versus a terrific Cyclones’ D.

Texas’ defense has played as good as the offense. The Longhorns gave up just 20 points to Alabama in a 1-point loss. Opponents average 18.3 per game.

Texas is good at stopping the rush, 118.7 points per, and stopping the pass, 228.7 each contest. The Longhorns have taken the ball away 5 times in 7 games this season.

Why Bet on the Oklahoma State Cowboys?

The Pokes boast one of the highest-scoring offenses in college football. Quarterback Spencer Sanders and his mates average 45.3 points per game, ranking third in the nation. Sanders has thrown for 1,639 yards and tossed 13 touchdowns to just 3 picks. Spencer average 4.5 yards per carry and has rushed for 8 TDs.

The Cowboys have turned the ball over just once this season. Oklahoma State’s D isn’t playing as well in 2022 as it did in 2021 but the defense posts respectable averages.

The Cowboys allow 437.3 total yards. Although the defense bends, it doesn’t break. Opponents average less than 28 points per versus OSU. The Cowboys have 4 takeaways this season.

Texas vs. Oklahoma State 2022 Betting Trends

Longhorns are 6-2 ATS in their last 8.
Texas is 1-4 ATS in their last 5 on the road.
Under is 5-1 in Texas’ last 6 on the road.

Over is 4-0 in the Cowboys’ last 4 games overall.

Texas vs. Oklahoma State 2022 Expert Betting Predictions

Texas has flashier wins and the 1-point loss to Alabama to hang their hat. No doubt Steve Sarkisian has turned the program around. But although the Longhorns have played great football, the point spread makes Texas an underlay. Not only is Oklahoma State at home, but the Cowboys’ offense is unstoppable.

Also, Saturday’s game is Texas’ eighth straight. Few college teams can keep their energy up for so many games. Texas is in an even more precarious position than most because the Horns have played Alabama, Iowa State, in an overtime game versus Texas Tech, and against Oklahoma in the Red River Rivalry.

By the fourth-quarter, the Longhorns’ defense should be gassed. Oklahoma State +6.5 is the play.
