Oklahoma vs Colorado Prediction
In this Oklahoma vs Colorado Prediction, Oklahoma is coming as -9 favorites. Both teams have similar overall and ATS record this season but Oklahoma has been in better form with a 6-1 record I nits last 7 games, as opposed to Colorado’s 1-3 record in its last 4. Oklahoma has been slightly better both offensively and defensively, but only by a couple of points and that does not justify them being almost double digit favorites. Both teams have identical field goal percentage and the Buffaloes have the edge in assists made, so I expect them to keep this one in single digits. Take Colorado and get the +9 points.
