OKLAHOMA vs OKLAHOMA STATE PREDICTION PICK

These teams met just 2 days ago and will be going at it again. Oklahoma State’s second-best player Likekele did not play on Saturday but is expected to play today. On Saturday the factors that led to the Sooner’s win were offensive rebounding and the inability to stop Cade Cunningham’s 40 points. Oklahoma is usually a solid rebounding and defensive team but it didn’t look that way. This game will have a lot more focus on defense which should result in an Under. The team that has the defensive advantage is Oklahoma. The team that should be hungrier for a win today is also Oklahoma after losing terribly to Kansas State and again on Saturday to its in-state rival. Oklahoma State is also in a look-ahead spot with Baylor on deck Thursday. Cunningham won’t be able to repeat the same performance which was the only reason for the win. The Bookie is rolling with the Oklahoma Sooners to win this game that should also go Under the total.
