North Dakota State has had a great season, rolling through the Summit League and is #1 in the nation in field goal shooting. But the run ends here. The Bison are 5-13 ATS in their last 18 games vs. a team with a winning percentage above .600. They played an easy schedule outside of a trip to Big 10 country to face Ohio State - and got clobbered 79-62. That great shooting percentage didn't do them any good, shooting 42% against the Buckeyes (5-of-17 from three-point land). They step up again here against a talented Oklahoma team with a great coach. After missing the NCAA tournament three consecutive years, Oklahoma is making its second straight appearance under head coach Lon Kruger. Oklahoma is #7 in the nation in scoring and still ticked off after losing their only Big 12 tourney game. The Sooners are on a 6-1 ATS run and 7-1 ATS following a defeat. Play Oklahoma to win straight-up.
