Buy Razor Ray’s CBB Picks Today!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n The handed Kansas their worst loss of the season beating the Jayhawks by 23 points.<\/p>\n The Bears could certainly use some more wins to breathe easier on Selection Sunday and they have the ability to win the Big 12 tournament.<\/p>\n Bears point guard Pierre Jackson has been fantastic this season, leading the league in scoring and assists. \u00a0He was a monster against KU with 28 and 10. \u00a0Baylor is going to need to dominate on the inside against Oklahoma State with Cory Jefferson and Isaiah Austin.<\/p>\n Jefferson is also coming off a fantastic game with 25 points on 11 for 13 shooting. \u00a0The talent has always been there for Baylor.<\/p>\n Short spread in this one with lots at stake for the Bears. \u00a0I know I am higher on this team than I should be because they can look so good for stretches. \u00a0I think Baylor will use their desperation to create an upset that just might get them into the tournament. After beating Kansas State and with Kansas losing, the Oklahoma State Cowboys find themselves in second place in the Big 12. \u00a0Their ticket is punched for sure but they have a chance to really improve their seeding over the next few days.<\/p>\n When they tangled with Baylor earlier in the season they won by just 2 points at home and lost by 10 on the road.<\/p>\n A neutral site might make the outcome different this time around.<\/p>\n In the victory guard Marcus Smart really shone with 14 points, rebounds and 7 assists. \u00a0He also had 4 steals while committing 0 turnovers. \u00a0You could easily argue it was his most effective game of the season and proof that in any game he can be the ultimate difference maker.<\/p>\n The Cowboys are definitely going to need big man Michael Cobbins to answer the bell too because they don\u2019t have nearly as much depth inside as Baylor.<\/p>\n OSU has the advantage in the backcourt with a slew of athletic wing players but if they aren\u2019t shooting straight they will likely get owned on the boards. \u00a0I like the Cowboys as an NCAA sleeper but think they will drop this one against a desperate Baylor squad.<\/p>\n Should be a great game to watch.<\/p>\n Spread Pick: \u00a0Baylor +2.5<\/strong> Bears vs Cowboys Pac 12 Tourney Spread\/Handicapping Huge win by the Bears to close the season.\u00a0 By toppling Kansas, handily by the way, they were able to finish the conference schedule with a .500 record and prove they can play with the big boys.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":180,"featured_media":25722,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1415],"tags":[53103,5478,38122,24604,1477,4631,471,4210,4694,4088,50839,53917],"class_list":["post-60639","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-ncaa-basketball","tag-53103","tag-baylor-bears","tag-baylor-bears-vs-oklahoma-st-cowboys","tag-bears-vs-cowboys","tag-cbb-picks","tag-college-basketball-odds","tag-free-picks","tag-ncaa-basketball-lines","tag-ncaa-hoops-predictions","tag-oklahoma-st-cowboys","tag-pac-12","tag-pac-12-tournament"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/60639","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/180"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=60639"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/60639\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":60653,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/60639\/revisions\/60653"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/25722"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=60639"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=60639"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=60639"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
