Over is 4-1 in Wildcats last 5 games as a road underdog of 10.5 or greater.

Under is 5-1 in Cowboys last 6 games following a ATS loss.

Over is 5-1 in Cowboys last 6 games as a favorite of 10.5 or greater.

My Prediction: This is a rematch of last December’s Alamo Bowl in which OSU intercepted Nick Foles 3 times including one for a touchdown and cruised to an easy 36-10 win. Arizona has most of their key players back from last year including WR Juron Criner who caught 82 passes for 1,233 yards and 11 TD’s. The Cowboys racked up 666 yards last win against UL Lafayette and that was despite QB Brandon Weeden throwing 3 interceptions. I just can’t see Arizona stopping OSU’s offense enough to keep the game close. Arizona played 3 road/neutral site games against ranked teams with great offenses and they got blown out in all three. Take the Pokes.

Oklahoma State -14
