Public Money Consensus<br />
</h2>
<p>
As expected with the favorites to win the Big 12, 91% have taken the Sooners against the spread and propelling the market by a full point from the open. In this market Oklahoma requires a bit of juice at -115 for takers willing to spot the points, as opposed to Baylor who comes in at -105 in this same scenario. On the Money Line, OU is a heavy home favorite at -650 while Baylor is far friendlier to the bankroll at +500 on return. In Over/Under markets the Total Line has fallen by 2.5 points but remains at a high number of 80. Overall it can be assessed that many have placed wagers upon the Under in the early going by virtue of the line movement.

Baylor Bears at Oklahoma Sooners Prediction

Oklahoma had problems putting away Iowa State, imagine what Baylor can do if the water gets warm for one of the nation’s most prolific offense. The numbers here mirror a classic case of an overreaction. Baylor with points alone is alluring. When you throw in over two touchdowns against a suspect defense and it’s a must-play. The lighter vig suggests there may be a wrench in the works to captivate takers but again, in a shootout the points are usually the move no questions asked. The Sooners and the Bears have the faculties to generate over 100 points and 1,000 yards which means this game can go anyway. If this be the case, the Bears offer more upside as they have won in Norman before and did so last year in Stillwater. Baylor is not afraid of hostile environments and thus the points here are a true treat.
