Oklahoma State Cowboys vs. Oregon State Beavers

Latest Odds : OKST -15.5
The Cowboys will be asking how well Spencer Sanders is able to settle in during his freshman year. Yes, you did read that right the Cowboys in the Big 12 will start a freshman at quarterback. He will have a fairly experienced line in front of him, but also has 2 returning receivers to treat as a target and a tight end as well. The downside is the running back, Chuba Hubbard, is projected to be the starter and he is only a sophomore.
The Oklahoma State defense could be tested quite a bit and early on. The defense lost acombined107 starts from the defense they put on the field last year. However, with how bad the defense played last year it could be a question on if that is a problem or a blessing as the Cowboys have a chance to rebuild and start over and improve on the 112th ranked defense last year.

Oregon State has not been able to do much of anything lately. The offense for the Beavers was ranked 66th overall. However, this year the Beavers do have a core group returning which is a plus and will definitely help out Jake Luton who is the quarterback this year.
The Beavers defense cannot get much worse. They have managed to fall almost all the way to the bottom of the nation last year, but this season the Beavers are returning quite a few starters. That level of experience will definitely help the Beavers out in this game and help them in bringing home a decent win here or at least a few good stops.

Free Betting Pick: Oregon State Beavers +15.5
The Beavers do have a decent chance of winning this game and with the core group returning on defense it will actually give the Cowboys a challenge. The challenge will be too much for a freshman quarterback and sophomore running back to overcome on their own. Look for that to make a difference in this game as the battle will go back and forth, but the Cowboys can barely keep pace. Final Score, Oklahoma State Cowboys win, but fail to cover ATS 35-24.
