Over/Under: Five Stat Predictions for Oklahoma State vs. West Virginia
STILLWATER – It’s been a rather rough start to Big 12 play for Oklahoma State, but the Pokes have a chance to bounce back this week as they host West Virginia.
After reading through the article, we ask that you drop a comment below to give your thoughts on if the Pokes will go over/under on each of the topics. Even though it’s Over/Under, much like Vegas, you can choose to push a topic if you feel it won’t be over or under.
Over/Under 50% passing for Alan Bowman
While Bowman threw for more than 350 yards against Kansas State last week, he completed 52% of his passes. He did, however, do so with virtually zero run game for nearly three quarters. Last season, Bowman went 24-of-36 up in Morgantown against WVU. Is going to complete at least 50% of his passes on Saturday?
Over/Under 20 rushes for Ollie Gordon II
OSU fans had a lot of complaints last week when Ollie had 11 carries for 69 yards in the first half against Kansas State, and then finished the game with 15 carries for 76 yards. Last year in Morgantown, Ollie had 29 carries for 282 yards and four touchdowns. Will Ollie clear the 20-rush mark this week against the Mountaineers?
Over/Under 35% 3rd down defense for OSU
The Cowboys have a really solid 3rd down defense this season holding teams to less than 37% conversion rate. On the other side of things, the Mountaineers are converting on just 32% of 3rd down plays. Will the Pokes hold WVU to at least 35% 3rd down conversion?
Over/Under 1.5 turnovers created for OSU
The Cowboys gave done a really good job at creating turnovers this season, winning the TO battle in nearly every game this season. Despite not taking advantage on the other side of the field, will the Cowboys create over or under 1.5 turnovers on Saturday?
Over/Under two made field goals
Logan Ward had a missed field goal against Kansas State last week and one against Utah in a three-point loss, but he’s been good overall this year going 10-of-13. Will he have at least two made field goals against WVU this weekend?
