Houston Cougars vs Oklahoma State Cowboys Point Spread Picks

Houston has become an annual top 25 team under Kelvin Sampson. They are a very physically tough-to-play against team with a very solid disruptive defense. Houston is among the nation's best at shutting down an opponent as they allow a stingy 36.9% shooting against them and just 29.2% from deep. Oklahoma St. isn't that far behind as they are allowing just 38.9% shooting against them, so this game is going to see a lot of bad or contested shots, often taken deep into the shot-clock. Additional points will be lost at the free-throw line as neither of these teams is efficient from the charity stripe. This looks like a 65 point game will win it for either team, and I will make the play under the total.
