Texas Longhorns vs Oklahoma State Cowboys 1/7/2023 Picks Predictions Previews

The #6 Texas Longhorns will go against the Oklahoma State Cowboys in NCAAB action in Gallagher-Iba Arena, OK, on Saturday, January 7, 2023, at 12:00 PM ET.

The sixth-ranked Texas Longhorns’ six-game unbeaten run was snapped on Tuesday when Kansas State defeated them 116-103 at home.

This result might seem more like a match between the Mavericks and Rockets of the NBA, but this was actually a college basketball championship game without overtime.

Despite being unranked right now, Kansas State will most likely be ranked the following week after going 13-1 overall and 2-0 in the Big 12.

Texas had a strong defense, at least until this game, allowing 66.5 points per game and ranking 41 in defensive efficiency, but Kansas State uncovered Texas’ weaknesses. They have a fantastic offense, of course. They are eighth in the nation in scoring average (84.1) and offensive efficiency (7th).

Tyrese Hunter averages 12.1 points per game for the Longhorns, while Timmy Allen adds 10.1 points per game. Marcus Carr tops the team with 18.1 points per game.

While Chris Beard was out on suspension, Rodney Terry served as the Longhorns’ interim head coach. Since Beard was formally sacked by the Longhorns on Friday, that situation becomes permanent, at least for this season.

The Texas Longhorns are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 matches.
The total went OVER in 6 of Texas’ last 6 matches.
The Longhorns are 6-1 SU in their last 7 matches.

Texas Longhorns vs Oklahoma State Cowboys Predictions 1/7/2023

The Oklahoma State Cowboys defeated West Virginia this week 67-60 as 3-point favorites to get their first victory in the Big 12. Their record now stands at 9-5 overall and 1-1 in the Big 12 after their victory on Monday.

Oklahoma State limited West Virginia to 36% shooting while shooting 48% from the field. They are 35th in the nation in scoring defense, giving up 61.9 points per game, which was their defining characteristic all season. They are ranked No. 14 in the nation by KenPom for defensive effectiveness.

Marcus Smart, a former Cowboys standout, was present to support his alma mater. Even after Erik Stevenson of West Virginia made a vulgar gesture toward Smart and received a technical foul, he assisted them.

Bryce Thompson scored 15 points to lead the Cowboys past West Virginia, and Avery Anderson chipped in with 13 points and 5 rebounds.

Kalib Boone contributed 10 points and 6 rebounds, while John-Michael Wright had 11 points and 4 assists. Anderson scores 11.5 points per game, while Thompson tops the Cowboys with 12.6 points per game on average.

According to the KenPom standings, Oklahoma State is rated No. 26.

#6 Texas Longhorns vs Oklahoma State Cowboys. The NCAAB pick for this game is the #6 Texas Longhorns. Texas recently suffered a difficult setback to Kansas State in which the Wildcats outscored them significantly.

But the Longhorns will beat a difficult Oklahoma State squad to avenge their loss. The fact that the team is no longer under the constant cloud of coach Chris Beard’s suspension is a major one.

Rodney Terry now has the team at least for this season after Beard was sacked on Friday. The team performed well under Terry, and now that there is no longer any doubt over Beard, expect the group to gel and play well under his leadership.

The #6 Texas Longhorns will win to a predicted score of 74-70.
