00:00Oklahoma State used to run the Big 12, and I don't mean you're going to win the conference

00:03every year, but one of the heavyweights here that's usually doing the damage and the big

00:07beatdowns. Take a look at this. Oklahoma State goes on the road to take on Texas Tech. That line

00:13sits today minus 37 and a half, with a total of 56 and a half. It's almost unbelievable to read

00:20that. Oklahoma State, one and six, fires their head coach. 40-point favorite for Texas Tech,

00:27Joe. What's the spread line here? Think about it, Donnie. 40-point favorite, and you said that total

00:32was 56 and a half. Are you kidding me here? Now, the funny thing, the thing that caught my attention is

00:38anybody that follows Texas Tech football knows that 56 and a half in Lubbock is one of the lower totals

00:46I can remember, Donnie. These totals at Lubbock are always in the 60s or better. In fact, when I looked

00:54it up, in the last 24 home games, Texas Tech has only had a lower total once, Donnie, and it was 56

01:02versus Baylor in what turned out to be, you're ready for this, a 59 to 35 game. So we are talking

01:08about an unprecedented low total in Lubbock, Texas against an in-state, right, an in-conference

01:13rival here, right? You're talking about Oklahoma State. My goodness, what a drop for the Oklahoma

01:20State Cowboys. But it still feels too low to me. Why? Because Texas Tech coming off the loss to

01:26Arizona State, they'll probably have Moten back. I mean, forget about Oklahoma State adding anything

01:32more than maybe 17, 18 points a game, which is what they're doing right now. This is all about Texas

01:39Tech letting out some frustration. It would not shock me if Texas Tech hits the total itself as a score.

01:48They're going to drop 50, 60 points on Oklahoma State this weekend.
