The Oklahoma State Cowboys will head out on the road to face off against the Iowa State Cyclones at 4:00 p.m. ET on Saturday at Jack Trice Stadium. Both of these teams will be coming in off a loss in a game they were expected to win.
Oklahoma State gave up the first points and the most points on Saturday evening. They ended up on the wrong side of a painful 33-7 walloping at South Alabama's hands. Oklahoma State were in a tough position after the first half, with the score sitting at 23-0.
Meanwhile, Iowa State's game on Saturday was all tied up 0-0 at the half, but sadly for them it didn't stay that way. They fell just short of Ohio by a score of 10-7. The game was as close as the oddsmakers predicted, but Iowa State were the slight favorite coming in.
Looking ahead, Iowa State are the favorite in this one, as the experts expect to see them win by 3.5 points. There could be an interesting gambling play in this one: Oklahoma State is only 1-2 against the spread overall, but they're a solid 4-1 against Iowa State across their last five meetings.
Oklahoma State didn't have too much breathing room in their game against Iowa State in their previous matchup last November, but they still walked away with a 20-14 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for Oklahoma State since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
