#612 ASA PLAY ON Oklahoma State -120 over North Texas, Tuesday at 9 PM ET - OSU has had an impressive 2 game run in this tourney topping Wichita State by 10 and then going on the road and beating a very solid SMU team as a 9 point dog. Now the Cowboys are back at home where they’ve been very good this season. They are 13-3 at home including wins over Iowa State, Kansas St, and Cincinnati. Their only home losses came at the hands of Houston, Arizona and Texas Tech who are all in the NCAA Sweet 16. Their offense has been potent at home averaging 79 PPG and they are facing a UNT offense that only puts up 64 PPG on the road this season (they average 71 PPG at home). The Mean Green had a very good season but 6 of their 8 losses this season came away from home. They only had 1 road win vs a team that was in the top 100 (per KenPom) and that was way back in November. Their efficiency drops from 1.15 PPP at home to 1.02 on the road where they shoot just 42%. UNT has played 2 home games in the NIT topping Furman and then holding on Sunday to beat Arkansas State 65-63 despite being +7% from the field and +8% from 3 (shooting percentages). This will be their first NIT road game. While OSU finished 7-13 in the Big 12, if you put them in the AAC which is UNT’s conference, they would rate as the 3rd best team in the league (per KenPom). On the other side, while UNT finished 14-4 in the AAC, put them in the Big12 and they rate as the 11th best team in the same range as Utah, UCF, Arizona State, and Kansas State who all lost @ Oklahoma State by 9 or more points. Short number here in our opinion so let’s lay it with the Cowboys at home.
