Big 12 Championship: Oklahoma State vs. Texas odds, picks and predictions
The No. 19 Oklahoma State Cowboys (9-3, 7-2 Big 12) and No. 7 Texas Longhorns (11-1, 8-1) meet Saturday in the Big 12 Championship. Kickoff from AT&T Stadium in Arlington is set for noon ET (ABC). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook's lines around the Oklahoma State vs. Texas odds, and make our expert college football picks and predictions.
Oklahoma State finished its regular season by winning in back-to-back shootout games. The Cowboys scored 40 or more points in each of their last 2 games to end the season, but they also allowed 30 or more points in each of their last 3 overall.
Texas ended its regular season on a 6-game win streak and now needs a win here to keep its College Football Playoff bid alive. Two of Texas' last 4 games were 1-score finishes, but the Longhorns were able to finish the regular season out strong with a 57-7 rout of the Texas Tech Red Raiders. Texas covered as a 14-point favorite in the win.
Oklahoma State is No. 19 and Texas is No. 7 in the US LBM Coaches Poll powered by Paste BN Sports.

Oklahoma State vs. Texas picks and predictions
Prediction
Texas 28, Oklahoma State 17
Moneyline
PASS.
The Longhorns (-700) should pick up the win here, but a -700 favorite is never worth the risk of betting on. Bet on the spread and/or O/U instead.
Against the spread
BET OKLAHOMA STATE +15.5 (-110).
Oklahoma State is 6-2 ATS in its last 8 games overall, while the Longhorns are only 6-5-1 ATS on the season. All of the last 6 meetings between these squads have finished within a 15.5-point margin, and the Cowboys have covered ATS as underdogs in 4 of their last 5 meetings with Texas.
Over/Under
LEAN UNDER 55.5 (-105).
The Under has hit in 2 of Texas' last 3 games overall and is 8-4 for the Longhorns on the season. The Under is also 6-4 in the last 10 Texas-Oklahoma State matchups and has hit in 2 of Texas' last 3 wins vs. the Cowboys.
Both teams are very good offensively, but I like the Longhorns' defense to contain Oklahoma State's offense and allow this game to just slightly hit the Under.
