Oklahoma State Cowboys @ Texas Tech Red Raiders Free Pick

[Shame About Ray]

The Oklahoma State Cowboys may have a loss to Texas counting against them in the Big 12 standings but they’re a perfect 8-0 against the spread (ATS). Last week, I expected a letdown that would allow Iowa State to grab the cash but the Cowboys scored 24 points in the third quarter to help their backers.

Meanwhile, the Red Raiders need to put their emotional, last-second win over then #1 Texas behind them and take on another Top 10 opponent. Texas Tech is vulnerable and they proved that as they almost let an early 22-3 lead evaporate against Texas. This has the feel of a game down the stretch last season when a team would come up with a huge win but get knocked out of the Top 5 with a loss the following week.

Pick: Oklahoma State +3.5
