Oklahoma vs Baylor ATS Pick: Baylor -6½
Baylor has been a hard team to track, being inconsistent and all over the place from game to game. The Bears recently hit a rough patch in which they lost three straight in Big 12 play against Kansas State, Texas and TCU, having been favored in each game but one.
However, after that losing streak, Baylor got right against UCF and beat two ranked opponents, Iowa State and Texas Tech. The Bears then faced a third straight ranked opponent in Kansas and still covered college basketball spreads in the loss
Baylor had 21 turnovers to Kansas’ eight, a deciding factor in the game. The Bears could not keep their position on the road against a top team. At home against a team more on their level, the Bears can not make the same mistakes, which would prevent them from beating and covering against Oklahoma for college basketball betting.
Oklahoma vs BaylorOver/Under Pick: Under 142½
Despite Baylor having one of the top offenses in the Big 12, averaging 74.4 points in conference play to rank third, this game could still hit the under. Both teams will try to keep this game close, and Baylor’s recent issue with turnovers could help that happen.
With the game staying close for the most part, that could lead to defense becoming crucial and the game being slowed down. That won’t allow the Bears to run on the Sooners’ defense, which gives up 66.1 points per game.
On top of that, what could help college basketball picks lean toward the under is that both teams have only hit the over in four of the last 10 games.
