The NC State Wolfpack have more firepower offensively along with the bigger and sexier names, but Oklahoma State is far from a pushover and is getting things done at both ends of the floor. Oklahoma State is doing a fine job offensively despite not yet having a No. 1 guy, but the defense continues to get dirty and give up nothing easy. Both teams on the end of a back to back, I want the scrappier team. I’ll take the free bucket with the Cowboys.
