Kate Constable: Baylor ML at Oklahoma St. (-117, BetRivers)

I like Baylor to win on the road tonight, but I think it’s going to be a close one, so I’ll lay the extra juice on the moneyline. The Bears will be without star freshman Keyonte George after he suffered an ankle injury on Saturday. With him out for the majority of that game against Texas, Jalen Bridges stepped up in his place with 17 points, eight rebounds and four blocks. He’s not talked about as much as some of Baylor’s other players, but he is a real difference-maker for this team. Oklahoma State has been fading lately, losing each of its last four games and failing to cover in each of them. The Cowboys are also 0-4 ATS in their last four games against teams with a winning straight-up record. Their confidence looks shot at this point in the season, so give me Baylor to get the W for the best price at BetRivers.

Lucy Burdge: Baylor -1 at Oklahoma State

Baylor has covered the spread in five of the last seven games, and the Bears won and covered in the last matchup against Oklahoma State. The Cowboys have also failed to cover in their last four games, which were also all outright losses. Oklahoma State is also 0-2 ATS as the home underdog, so I like Baylor to cover this spread. You can get still get -1 at DraftKings, along with a great welcome bonus below!

Matt Horner: Oklahoma State +1.5 vs. Baylor

This is a fishy line if I have ever seen one. Why is 16-13 OK State just a small, 1.5-point underdog to No. 9 Baylor (21-8), which is coming off of a huge win against Texas? Something is up, and we know what that means. This line is moving down as well, as I am seeing +1 on the board at some books. I’ll follow the sharps and ride with the Cowboys tonight.

Dan Karpuc: Nevada -5.5 at Wyoming

Nevada (22-7 SU, 19-8-1 ATS) has a clear edge over Wyoming (8-20 SU, 9-17-1 ATS) and the Wolf Pack have won and covered the spread in six of their last seven games. Wyoming has lost outright and failed to cover the spread three straight times and in five of the last seven contests. Coming in at 32nd in KenPom’s rankings, Nevada is a much more efficient squad than Wyoming (166th), and the NET Rankings tell a very similar story (Nevada: 30th, Wyoming 191st). Nevada’s senior backcourt of Jarod Lucas (16.5 PPG) and Kenan Blackshear (14.6 PPG) should both eat and guide the Wolf Pack to a big win.

Brad Pinkerton: Iowa State -4.5 vs. West Virginia

This line opened at ISU -3.5 and has quickly moved as high as -5.5 behind sharp money, but you can still grab -4.5 at BetMGM as a decent price. I just think it's suspicious that Iowa State is gaining so much professional attention after dropping three straight (and seven of nine), including an 11-point home loss to Oklahoma as the 7.5-point favorite last time out. I may not agree with it, but I'm not ignoring the early line movement here. Take Iowa State to cover with the best price currently at BetMGM (along with an incredible signup offer below).
