[ad-6571516]<\/p>\n<p>The Cowboys have some really good guards but I am not sure they have someone to really guard Bears point guard Pierre Jackson. \u00a0Jackson has emerged as the top scoring option while still running the rest of the team. \u00a0Another tough matchup is freshman center Isaiah Austin.<\/p>\n<p>He has had a double-double in 2 of 4 league games and has become more consistent scoring 10 or more in the last 8.<\/p>\n<p>It is not a good indicator that Baylor is just 1-4 ATS at home this season. \u00a0This tea has had some interesting performances as they seem to let their opponents dictate style instead of setting the pace themselves. \u00a0That might be why the home record is so unimpressive.<\/p>\n<p>They aren\u2019t great foul shooters either.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Spread Pick: \u00a0Baylor -4.5<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong> O\/U Pick: \u00a0Over<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong> Score Prediction: \u00a0Baylor 75 &#8211; Oklahoma State 67<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cowboys vs Bears CBB Basketball Spread\/Handicapping The Cowboys are a confounding team.
