Cowboys vs Sooners Betting Trends
The public betting splits are showing that spread bettors are going both ways with their wagers. There’s 72% of spread handle backing the Sooners, while 72% of spread bets are going for the Cowboys. The public moneyline players are all-in with the Cowboys. Oklahoma State is drawing 92% of moneyline handle and 61% of moneyline bets.
Total players are also of two minds. The handle is going 67% with the over. Bets, though, are liking the under at 56%. The under has proven to be the winning play in 11 of the Cowboys’ last 13 road games. But the over is 4-3 in the Sooners’ last seven games.
Cowboys Falling Off In Stretch Drive
Sitting not so long ago at 6-1, their lone loss to #4 TCU, the Cowboys looked to be riding high. Then they got dumped 48-0 by Kansas State and 37-16 by Kansas. Now at 7-3, Oklahoma State is clinging to slim Big 12 title hopes. At 4-3, the Cowboys are tied for third place in the conference standings.
Spencer Sanders wants it clear — he is playing in Bedlam next weekend.

The biggest question facing the Cowboys is the status of QB1 Spencer Sanders. A shoulder injury kept him out of the Kansas loss. Sanders came off the bench to replace an ineffective Gunnar Gundy last week, rallying the Cowboys to a 20-14 win over Iowa State.
Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy is 3-14 SU against Oklahoma. The Cowboys are 0-3 SU and 1-2 ATS in their last three road games. Oklahoma State is scoring 34.9 points per game to rank as the #24 scoring offense in the nation.
Gray Secret Weapon For Sooners
The most dangerous component for the Sooners is senior running back Eric Gray. In last week’s loss at West Virginia, he carried the ball 25 times for a season-high 211 yards and two touchdowns. That works out to 8.4 yards per carry.
Gray has rushed for 1,113 yards this season, good for ninth in the nation. He has gone over 100 yards four games in a row and in seven of 10 games this season. At 6.75 yards per carry, he rates #6 in the NCAA.
Oklahoma senior running back Eric Gray will be a valuable offensive chess piece in the NFL.

Oklahoma needs one more win in order to be bowl eligible. The Sooners have gone to a bowl game every season since 1998. Sooners QB Dillon Gabriel lists a passer efficiency rating of 151.42. That’s good for 30th in the NCAA. Only 10 QBs show fewer interceptions than the four picks he’s thrown.
Oklahoma State vs Oklahoma Prediction
Oklahoma is 5-1-1 ATS in the last seven games against Oklahoma State. But the Sooners are just 2-3 ATS in the last five home games vs the Cowboys.
The Sooners are 2-5 SU and 1-6 ATS in their last seven games. They’re 1-3 SU in their last four home games. The Sooners should win this game, but they will be hard-pressed to cover the 7.5-point spread.
Pick: Oklahoma State +7.5 (-110).
