Colorado vs Oklahoma State Prediction
I’m on the over here. I think that Oklahoma State’s going to want to show some fight being their last game of the year, and while Colorado likely doesn’t have anything but pride to play for here, this is still a game where I think Deion Sanders will want to load up Shedeur’s plate to build up his Heisman candidacy. I think this game’s going to be a track meet. Give me the over.
