Oklahoma State Cowboys vs. Maryland Terrapins Prediction

The Cowboys play run and gun and their speed can be too much for many opponents to handle, but the Terrapins are not one those. Maryland hasn’t had a regulation time game go over today’s posted total line since back on March 11th when they beat Nebraska 97-86. The host is shooting a paltry 40% from the field this season so don’t look for them to light it up even against Oklahoma State’s loose defensive play.
