The Oklahoma State Cowboys have covered the spread in only two of their last 11 games and are 2-7 ATS in their last nine games vs. a team with a winning straight up record.

Here they'll face an Iowa State team that is 9-3-2 ATS in its last 14 home games vs. a team with a losing road record and will be riding on the momentum of a 68-64 triumph as a 5.5-point underdog at No. 9 Texas Tech last time out.

We can also note that Oklahoma State will be shorthanded as coach Mike Boynton dismissed three players for a violation for team rules a couple of days ago. Boynton is now left with nine players on the Cowboys' roster, including freshman walk-on Luke Major.

8* play on Iowa State Cyclones.
