This is a big game for both Oklahoma and Oklahoma State as it is a huge in-state rivalry, and with both teams off a loss, and NCAA Tournament importance, I expect this one to be played intently on the defensive end. Oklahoma State is struggling with five straight losses, and as Marcus Smart sits out the second of a three games suspension, the Cowboys offense managed just 68 points in his absence in the first one. They are going to need to shorten the game without their best player on the floor. Oklahoma was slowed to 60 points in their last game vs. Texas Tech, so look for Oklahoma State to take a similar approach here with the tempo. The Sooners are 7-3 to the UNDER in their last 10 in the conference, and I expect this one to put another one in the UNDER column.
