I like OK ST here for the reason that Zac Robinson is no 2 in the country in passer efficiency.  Harrell is 9th.  Yes Harrell does throw for more yards but what would Zac do if he too threw 50 times a game.  He may average 500 yards.  Its too bad that OK ST RB Kendall Hunter in no 4 in the country in rushing and OK ST as a team is no 4 in the country in rushing offense.  Otherwise put a Tex Tech uniform on Harrell and he too would throw for a bunch of yards.  OK ST is more balanced and Tex Tech is all passing.  OK ST will win the game straight up.

OK ST +3.5

ksb122 - i agree with you.  Graham Harrell threw for over 5500 yds last year.  and yet they were 9-4.  should of been 8-5 if UVA didnt blow a 14 pt lead with 5 min left. 

Nevada and Nebraska had almost 500 yds against Tex tech.  They have only played 1 team with a decent running game since the Big 12 is all passing.  Nevada and they ran for 224 yards.  Once again OK ST is the play.  If not I'll be down big.  We'll big for me might not be big for everyone else.  I still need my house and car. 

OK ST +3.5

Both very balanced high scoring offenses hit the field for this one. T-Tech was always known for their passing attack but found a running game to boost the offense this season. Can't choose a side on this one I just both teams to score TD's on every drive.

Over 70

Aloha and good luck to all

OK St can hang around and SU win that's for sure. 

Taking OK St +3.5 for a MEDIUM sized play

I'm leaning on Okie State here for the same reasons mentioned above. Better balance and run game, which could allow them to control the clock and keep the TT offense off the field.

Still thinking though, not sure if anyone on the OSU D can stop Crabtree.  I do think Texas could have easily won that game last week, dropping 2 late picks, and if they did we'd see a different line.

Hey, Mike Gundy is 41 now, isn't he?  Wonder if he'll need to remind reporters of that. 

Being 8-0-0 ATS doesn't bother me either.

Here's my $0.02 worth.
OkSt has the ability to move the ball and chew time off of the clock. The only weakness I see in TT is that they're impatient at times. Harrell forces the ball to Crabtree. Now, I understand that a great QB can force to a great WR, but they haven't paid for it yet and this could very well be the best defensive secondary they've gone up against. I say Harrell throws his first two pics of the season and TT goes down by less than a TD in a game that doesn't reach the O/U.

TT is good and could very well blow this game open of OkSt makes mistakes early, but OkSt has shown they are a very well coached team. Man, the B12 south is STACKED this year. Fun, fun, fun to watch!

Why hasnt anyone disputed how Tech O line OWNED UTs D line.  I love games like this because I make money no matter who wins!! Keep betting guys...

Not a true statement...you don't always win. Many books are down this year and I bet you are too...here to figure out a way to get money back.

After looking at this game for sometime I finally decided that Ok. State was the play here. IMO I think they are better defensively and have solid offense. Texas Tech was not the better team last week...I think Texas played poor enough to give Tech a W. Ok. State DEF will be ready for the primtime game. Tech will be a sleep at the wheel looking ahead to next week. Small play here.

I have them giving up an ave. of 21 pts. a game for a total of 189. I do think Tech will score on them and the game will be close. Thats why I'm taking the over... GL to all
