Houston vs Oklahoma State Prediction, Picks & Odds for Today — College Football Week 7
Rosales’ prediction: If Conner Weigman plays, Houston looks set to extend Oklahoma State’s woes with another dominant victory.

It’s been a rough year for the Cowboys, who have already parted ways with their head coach and are now on a four-game losing streak.

Houston vs Oklahoma State prediction
Houston vs Oklahoma State best bet: Houston -14.5 (-110)
Normally, I’d steer clear of a spread that big, but there’s no redeeming qualities coming out of this Oklahoma State team.
They have been crushed in back-to-back losses to Baylor (45-27) and last week to Arizona (41-13). In their four straight losses, only Tulsa failed to blow them out, winning 19-12.
They’re also down quarterback Zane Flores, who hurt his shoulder in the loss to Arizona.
That leaves them with freshman Banks Bowen, and Sam Jackson, who had converted to wide receiver last year while at Auburn. He replaced Flores against Arizona and threw for 27 yards on 3-for-6 passing.
Houston’s pivot problem is more encouraging, as Conner Weigman went into concussion protocol after leaving their 35-11 loss to Texas Tech in the second quarter.
After building a solid 4-0 mark, Weigman’s injury derailed the Cougars’ litmus test against its first ranked opponent on the year. He had thrown for 93 yards and a score before leaving the game, and Houston didn’t score another point.
Assuming he does play, he’ll lead a Houston Cougars offense averaging 27.2 points per game. Oklahoma State is averaging a paltry 16.4 points per contest, and their defense is 130th or worse in total yards and passing yards per game, while ranking 112th against the rush, at 179.4 per contest.
Houston vs Oklahoma State same-game parlay
During this current four-game losing slide, Oklahoma State has trailed by at least seven points in three of them. The only game they came out even was against Baylor, tied 7-7 after the first 15 minutes.
In Houston’s four wins, they came out of the opening quarter with at least a seven-point lead twice, and in a scoreless draw in another.
They should be in position to get ahead in this one on Saturday.
Houston vs Oklahoma State SGP

Houston vs Oklahoma State game predictions
Houston vs Oklahoma State moneyline prediction
Houston ML (-620 at FanDuel)
I don’t see any way that Houston loses this game, even if Weigman were to sit out. So in that sense, a wager on the moneyline wouldn’t be the worst idea, but close, with little juice to make it worth your while.
A wager on OKST at +460? You might enjoy burning your money more than betting on the Cowboys.
Houston vs Oklahoma State spread prediction
Houston -14.5 (-110 at FanDuel)
If Conner Weigman suits up, he’ll take charge of a Houston offense that’s putting up 27.2 points per game. In contrast, Oklahoma State is struggling offensively, averaging just 16.4 points per game.
Defensively, the Cowboys rank 130th or worse in both total and passing yards allowed per game, and they’re 112th against the run, giving up 179.4 rushing yards per contest.
Houston vs Oklahoma State Over/Under prediction
Under 46.5 points (-115 at FanDuel)
I don’t think this is a game where Houston wants to flex.
More than anything, I think they want to get out big early, perhaps open it up to the backups and get out of Stillwater without any serious injuries, as they have Arizona and no. 21 Arizona State on the horizon.
The Cowboys’ offense is in shambles, and their QB options don’t exactly instill some kind of offensive boost.
Their inability to put up points brings this score Under the total.
Houston vs Oklahoma State odds
- Spread: Houston -14.5 (-110) | Oklahoma State +14.5 (-110)
- Moneyline: Houston -620 | Oklahoma State +460
- Over/Under: Over 46.5 (-115) | Under 46.5 (-105)

OKC Thunder Announce Starting Lineup Against Suns In Game 2
The Oklahoma City Thunder are taking on the Phoenix Suns in Game 2 of their opening-round series. The OKC Thunder are hoping that they can repeat their Sunday afternoon performance in this contest. Game 2 will be an interesting test with the Suns having more time to prepare.
Phoenix was up against a rock and a hard place in the series opener. The Oklahoma City Thunder not only have the talent advantage but the rest advantage as well. Phoenix punched their ticket to the NBA Playoffs on Friday night by staving off the Golden State Warriors on Friday night before landing in Oklahoma City on Saturday and playing on Saturday afternoon to the tune of a 119-84 blowout Thunder victory.
The NBA has seen plenty of upsets already. The Orlando Magic, Philadelphia 76ers and Portland Trail Blazers have all stolen games from the higher seed. The Thunder know they have to keep the foot on the gas in this contest.
“These series are unpredictable. No 2 games are the same. The minute you make an assumption, you are overconfident, or the minute you go down and you’re overly urgent, that can impact your ability to be present in the next game,” Thunder head coach Mark Daigneault said pregame on Wednesday night.
The Oklahoma City Thunder are seeing the Suns make an adjustment with their starting lineup by inserting Collin Gillespie to give Phoenix a trio of ball handling scoring options alongside Devin Booker and Jalen Green. This gives the Suns hope to be able to find better shot quality against this stifling Thunder defensive unit.
Oklahoma City is healthier now than they have been all season. The Thunder only are missing rookie Thomas Sorber (ACL) who is out for the year. This allows the Bricktown Ballers to roll out their traditional first five in this contest.

No. 14 Oklahoma Rallies for Win Over Oral Roberts Behind Willits’ Grand Slam
NORMAN — The Sooners were behind the eight ball for much of Tuesday’s game against Oral Roberts.
But one swing of the bat got them in a more favorable position.
Shortstop Jaxon Willits blasted a grand slam in the sixth inning to give No. 14 Oklahoma its first lead before eventually winning 7-6.
The Sooners trailed by as many as five runs before they rallied late.
In the first inning, Oral Roberts’ Cooper Combs hit a two-out grand slam to give the Golden Eagles a comfortable cushion. OU infielder Deiten Lachance got the Sooners on the board in the second inning with a solo home run, but ORU responded with a solo shot of its own in the next frame.
The Golden Eagles made it a 6-1 run game in the top of the fourth, and they appeared to be on cruise control. But in the bottom of that frame, OU’s rally began.
Dasan Harris made it a four-run game again with a sacrifice fly in the bottom of the fourth before Camden Johnson hit a sacrifice fly of his own in the fifth.
Then, in the sixth, the Sooners took their first lead of the game.

Harris singled before Kyle Branch and Connor Larkin walked to load the bases. Willits then swung at the first pitch he saw, sending it well over the right-center field fence.
Neither team scored after Willits’ home run, as OU relief pitcher Xander Mercurius retired nine ORU batters in a row to seal the Sooners’ one-run win.
Michael Catalano started on the mound for Oklahoma, but his outing was short-lived — he gave up four earned runs on two hits and five walks in 1 ⅓ innings.
After coach Skip Johnson relieved Catalano in the second inning, six different OU arms entered the game. Reid Hensley collected the win, while Mercurius got the save.
OU improved to 28-12 overall with the win, while Oral Roberts dropped to 23-15. The Sooners are 7-3 in midweek games this season, and they clinched the season sweep of the Golden Eagles on Tuesday.
Next, the Sooners will hit the road for a three-game series against Auburn. The Tigers, ranked No. 11 by D1Baseball, are 10-8 in SEC play and took two of three games against Florida over the weekend.
The series will open on Friday, and first pitch is scheduled for 6 p.m.
