Result: Loss

Mizzou -5

I usually hesitate when a team is off a huge win and have a game 2 days later, and also have a big game on deck. This fits Mizzou's situation tonight, but they are so well coached, I have no fear of laying a road number against an Oklahoma team they aboslutley DESTROYED last month in Columbia. Mizzou players asked the fans not to rush the court on Saturday nights big win over hated rival Kansas, because of the factt they felt it was not an upset and they were suppose to win the game. That is confidence and disipline. Mizzou beat the stuffing out of the Sooners 87-49 last month, and clearly are the better team, and ranked in the Top 4 in the nation. They have won road games at Iowa State and Baylor (far better teams) and while their road ATS numbers are horrible, bear in mind that was with another coach. Mizzou is a bad matchup for OU who does not defend the perimeter well. anmd while payback is in mind, OU does not have the horses here. A MUST WIN road game for Mizzou, as Big 12 road wins do not come easy. Mizzou 11-2 ATS the last 13 in this series.

Play 1 Unit on Mizzou

BONUS PLAY: Play Texas AM +2.5 for a half unit against Texas. Texas AM has been shooting lights out their last 5, Texas struggles from 3 point range and Texas AM playing with 4 time revenge in their last Big 12 meeting at home with hated rival Texas as they leave for the SEC, they will be ready big time here.
