The current betting odds have Oklahoma State listed as a 3 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. Oklahoma State has looked really good in their games this season with their 7-2 record overall and they have been getting even better in their games lately with their 5-1 conference record. Meanwhile, UCF hasn't looked good this season with their 4-5 record overall and their 1-5 record in conference games as all of their losses this season have come against Big 12 opponents and their only win in the conference coming against Cincinnati who was also joining the Big 12 this year just like UCF. UCF has started to look a lot better on offense in their games lately but their defense has still been a big problem for them as they do give up a ton of points and Oklahoma State will have the edge on defense with the way they have been playing. Oklahoma State also has a really good offense with Bowman leading the way and they will do some serious damage in this game against that UCF defense. The best way to place a bet here is on Oklahoma State to cover the spread in this game. 

Oklahoma State Central Florida Prediction:  Our NCAAF Pick for Saturday, November 11, 2023 (3:30 pm ET start time) is OK State 41 UCF 35.
