College Football Predictions: Big 12 Conference Picks Against the Spread

Saturday’s Big 12 Conference slate is highlighted by a matchup of No. 11 Oklahoma heading into Manhattan, Kansas to take on upstart No. 10 Kansas State.

Who should you take in that game? Here’s a look at that and all of the other Big 12 match ups of the day.

Missouri at Texas A&M: The Aggies will stay hot and will offer up a little payback to Missouri for a loss last season.. Don’t be scared of the double-digit line. Texas A&M 38 Missouri 20.

Oklahoma (-13.5) at Kansas State: The odds makers gave the wildcats no love here, even playing at home. The dream season may come to an end today, but don’t look for the Sooners to run away with it. Covering two touchdowns on the road against a ranked team won’t be easy. Take the Wildcats and the points. Oklahoma 31 Kansas State 23

Baylor at Oklahoma State (-14.5): The Big 12 Conference is known for its high-powered offenses, and two of them will be matched against each other when Baylor visits Oklahoma State. Can Robert Griffin III pull off some more magic? He will keep it close before the Cowboys pull away. Take the Bears and the points. Oklahoma State 38 Baylor 34.

Kansas at Texas (-28): Kansas stinks but are the Longhorns four touchdowns better? Texas 45 Kansas 17.

Iowa State at Texas Tech (14.5): Will the Red Raiders suffer a hangover after the upset of Oklahoma? At least for a part of this game they probably will. But redshirt freshman Jared Barnett is now the Iowa State quarterback and the Cyclones are last in the Big 12 in offense so Texas Tech stands to be fine. Texas Tech 38 Iowa State 17.
