Oregon vs Oklahoma State Prediction
In this Oregon vs Oklahoma State Prediction, Oregon is coming as -23.5 road favorites. Both teams are coming off opposite outcomes in their opening games of the season and Oklahoma State continued where they left off last season’s horrible 1-11 season (5-7 ATS), as they lost by scoring just 10 points. They will have to host the #4 projected team in the country this season in Oregon, who were undefeated on the road last season and were 9-6 against the spread. The difference here is huge and I will gladly lay the -23.5 points with Oregon on the road in this one.
