College basketball fans, it is time to place bets as we approach the end of February, with Baylor and Oklahoma State set to face off in a crucial Big 12 matchup. Baylor comes in as a 1.5-point road favorite in this one, so let’s take a look at the best college basketball bet for Monday, Feb. 27.
Sharp College Basketball Bet: Baylor-Oklahoma State
Baylor is a proven winner on the road. The Bears have shown the ability to go into hostile environments and come out victorious. Although they’ve lost to Kansas and Kansas State in recent weeks, this is still a 21-8 squad with plenty of experience and talent, particularly in its guard-dominant offense. Even with the possible absence of Keyonte George, Baylor still has the better offense and should be successful in a tough road environment.
On the other hand, Oklahoma State is just 16-13 and struggles with its offense. The Cowboys only shoot 32% from 3-point range and average around only 70 points per game. Although they have a solid defense that can disrupt opposing offenses, they struggle to find a consistent offensive identity.
While going on the road is never easy, Baylor has already beaten Oklahoma State by double digits earlier in the season. This matchup may be closer, but Baylor’s talent and experience should give them the edge in this contest. Baylor has the better offense and proven road success, while Oklahoma State struggles with its offense and consistency. It is bound to be an exciting matchup, but Baylor should come out on top.
