Big 12 Play- Wednesday

[natethehorn]

YTD 2-0; +5 units

Oklahoma -9 vs. Texas A&M

This line has dropped from 10.5. I will watch it the rest of the day, but my guess is it will be closer to 10 by tipoff.

Texas A&M struggled against a woeful Baylor team last game, winning only by 2pts. Prior to that the Aggies dropped three of its previous four games, including 2 at home.

Oklahoma is hitting its stride, beating my Longhorns at home Saturday night when the Sooners shot absolutely light out. I don't expect OU to shoot that well again tonight, but against the Aggies they shouldn't need to.

Good luck!

The thing that scares me about Oklahoma is they might be looking ahead to there Sunday match up with my jayhawks and im afraid A&M has enough offense to keep it close. Good Luck with your pick.

A&M also has the look ahead factor vs. Texas Saturday. I'll call that a wash.

I would'nt be looking ahead to that game if i was A&M. Lol

...think a&m might have been looking ahead when they played baylor?

 

[block044]

oky also off the big win...could come out flat!

Here is the biggest difference: On Saturday OU played infront of a hyped up sold out crowd of 13,000 against their arch rival. Tonight they will play in front of a subdued crowd of approximately 8,500 against a bad A+M team.

Bob Stoops- You don't think that win against the Horns will bring more than 8,500 out to Lloyd Noble tonight? Surely, OU Hoops fans are better than that...

 

[Bob Stoops]

You would think so, but won't happen. Mid-week game with the Hornets also playing the Bulls tonight. Last time this happened was against Missouri (conference home opener) and we had 7,500.

 

[natethehorn]

Ha...OKC is a pro sports town now?? That just sounds funny, no offense.

 

[Bob Stoops]

OU is averaging about 62 points a game at home and the hornets are averaging 95. I choose OU, but the Hornets are more entertaining. Plus they are the new "cool thing".

 

[Bob Stoops]

The crowd was pitiful as expected, but OU really should have covered. Tough break.

 

[natethehorn]

yeah, they should have....and that was the third leg of my parlay which would have hit. dang, i hate ou. :hitwithro
