Oklahoma State Cowboys -28 (10 Units)
Hard to pass this up, it really is. Scary that some 77% of public bettors are taking the Hokies to win by four touchdowns here but it's almost impossible to back South Alabama knowing they cannot stop this Cowboys offense. Oklahoma State destroyed Tulsa in their opener totaling 640 total yards of offense on an insane 10.2 yards per play. That's huge. South Alabama's defense is coming off a game where they allowed 47 points to Ole Miss on 531 whopping yards of offense and 8.3 yards per play. So again someone tell me how they can stop the Cowboys. Okie State ran the ball for 332 (9.0 yards per carry) in their opener and they completed 80.8% of their passes for 308 passing yards and 11.8 yards per pass attempt. South Alabama did have a bit of success stopping the Ole Miss run but they got torched in the air as the Rebels completed 80% of their passes for 12.3 yards per pass attempt. This is going to be an air assault for the Oklahoma State. South Alabama did manage a decent 374 total yards of offense and 5.5 yards per play. Okie State does allow points but their pass D is tremendous and they allowed only 4.9 yards per pass attempt in their opener. Their is no scenario where I don't see a blowout.
Both teams covered in their opener but I trust Mike Gundy a whole lot more than Joey Jones. The Cowboys are 4-1 ATS in their last five non-conference games and 4-1 ATS in their last five away games. The last three years they have not been good away favorites but over the last 10 years under Gundy they are 16-11-2 ATS. South Alabama have covered the spread in only 9 of their last 34 games as lined opponents and they are 5-21 ATS in their last 26 games coming off a game where they allow 450+ yards in their previous game. Again no scenario for me where this is not a blowout.
Trend of the Game: Oklahoma State is 6-1 ATS in their last seven road games versus a team with a losing record.
