Oklahoma vs Texas A&M Prediction
The current betting odds have Oklahoma listed as a 9 point underdog in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. Oklahoma has looked really good in their games this season with their 15-4 record overall, but their 2-4 conference record has them in the bottom half of the SEC. They haven't looked good in their road games with their 1-2 road record, but they have looked better in their games lately. Meanwhile, Texas A&M has looked really good in their games this season with their 15-5 record overall and their 4-3 conference record which has them right in the middle of the SEC. They have looked a lot better on their home court this year with their 9-1 home record, but they haven't looked great in their games lately either. Both of these teams are only 2-3 in their last 5 games and Texas A&M is coming off a loss in their last one. They lost a tight road game to Texas by 1 point, but even when they have been winning games at home this season, they haven't really been blowing out conference opponents there. They will be looking to bounce back from that loss and they have already beaten this Oklahoma team this season with a 2 point road win a few weeks ago, but Oklahoma will be seeking revenge in this game and haven't been that bad lately. They are coming off a road win over Arkansas in their last one and they have some momentum on their side with 2 wins in a row now. Oklahoma is going to fight to keep this a close game, especially since Texas A&M hasn't been at their best lately, and this is a big number for Texas A&M to cover with Oklahoma looking better lately. The best way to place a bet here is on Oklahoma to cover the spread in this game.
