Texas Longhorns (4-2) vs Oklahoma State Cowboys (5-0)

A lot of the public is on Oklahoma State here but Texas remains the favorite in this one. When it comes to defensive team vs. offensive team games like this, I usually side with the offensive side, especially in Big 12 play. The Big 12 is notorious for high-scoring shootouts, just as we saw last week with Oklahoma and Texas. Texas is going to score in this one, and it all comes down to if Oklahoma State has enough answers offensively to hang around. I do not think that is the case, as even though Texas' defense has not been great on the year, it should only take a few key stops for the Longhorns to win and cover this spread. Oklahoma State has not faced an offense like Texas' this season, and I think this game is going to be a rude awakening on the road in a very tough environment. I expect the Longhorns' offense to be too much for OK State, just as it was last year at OK State.
