Oklahoma State +3.5 2.2% play
Oklahoma State has revitalized their season after back to back wins against Kansas and Kansas State. Once Alan Bowman came back and practiced with the first team it just seemed like Oklahoma State played much better all around. For West Virginia they have been playing great, but they lost on a hail mary to a poor Houston team. They have a good home field, but they typically are under dogs in this spot, but they’ll be favorites here, and I think Mike Gundy is a far better coach 3-1 vs. Neal Brown. Last year’s loss saw Oklahoma State the week after Oklahoma lose at home and gave up 200+ yards rushing. Oklahoma State still out gained West Virginia. I think West Virginia who needs to be able to run the ball will have a hard time running against Oklahoma State. They rank 94th in rushing ypc, and 78th in success rate. Oklahoma State has been solid vs. the run ranking 33rd in success rate defense. They did give up 200+ yards twice, but that was against a pair of top 20 rushing success teams and that just is not West Virginia. Look for Oklahoma State to continue their momentum and history of success in this meeting.
