NCAAB: Monday's play

Play: Oklahoma State +6.5 -110

Time: 7 p.m. ET

Reasoning: The Cowboys have won three of their last four games against ranked league opponents. That includes Saturday's win over Kansas, the team that gave Baylor its lone home loss. Oklahoma State is 6-0 against teams from Texas and it beat the Bears 64-53 on Jan. 27. In that meeting the Cowboys held Baylor to a season-low 34.5% shooting and they hung with the Bears in the rebounding department. Baylor is horrific from the foul line (66.4%). Oklahoma State shoots 72.2% from the stripe. The Cowboys also have the edge in steals and blocks and they turn over the ball less than the Bears. Baylor committed 13 turnovers in the first game and it turned it over 19 times against West Virginia on Saturday. Oklahoma State has the Big 12's top scoring tandem in Phil Forte (17.0 ppg) and Le'Bryan Nash (16.9 ppg). The Cowboys have averaged 10.3 steals over their last four contests.


Record: 273-204-10 (57.2%)
Bankroll: +206.31%
