Tulsa Golden Hurricane vs. Oklahoma State Cowboys Prediction
I’m on the over in this one. These are just two teams that I don’t trust defensively, as Oklahoma State couldn’t stop a nosebleed against Oregon and while Tulsa isn’t Oregon, Tulsa is still a team with capable QB Play and I think that they’ll score some points here. On the other side, Oklahoma State should have a better offensive showing against Tulsa’s defense and I think that we’re getting some points in this one. Give me the over in this one.
