The Oklahoma State Cowboys will play host to the Wichita State Shockers tonight for a second-round NIT matchup in the Tulsa region.
The Cowboys run the court, score a ton, and give up just as many, all of which has me backing the Over in my Wichita State vs. Oklahoma State predictions.
Let’s take a closer look at tonight’s matchup with my free college basketball picks for Sunday, March 22.
Wichita State vs Oklahoma State prediction
Who will win Wichita State vs Oklahoma State?
Oklahoma State: It’s still unclear if the Oklahoma State Cowboys will have Anthony Roy (17.2 points per game), Vyctorius Miller (10.9 PPG), or Isaiah Coleman (6.5 PPG) back for tonight’s game. But the Cowboys showed they can still produce plenty of offense even without them against the Davidson Wildcats. This should be a competitive game, but the Wichita State Shockers don’t have the offense to keep up with the Cowboys on their home court.
Wichita State vs Oklahoma State best bet: Over 163 (-110)
Oklahoma State ranks ninth in adjusted tempo and 44th in adjusted offensive rating, according to KenPom.
The Cowboys have put up 84+ points in five of their last seven, hitting the Over in every contest during that stretch. Even the loss of their leading scorer did little to slow down the offensive output against Davidson.
Wichita State can play a more restrained brand of basketball, but it has plenty of scoring punch, as it's averaged 79.1 PPG over its last nine.
These teams are set up to play a fast-paced shootout tonight, and I’m taking the Over.
COVERS INTEL: Oklahoma State has played to an average total of 175.4 PPG over its last seven, with opponents shooting 37.7% from deep in that span.

Tonight’s game should be highly competitive, but I have to give the Cowboys the edge. Oklahoma State is 15-5 at home this season and showed it can score enough points to win even without Roy. I’ll buy the Cowboys to win outright alongside the Over for my SGP tonight.
