Oklahoma State is a favorite against Kansas on Saturday as it looks to shake off its 48-0 loss to Kansas State from the weekend, but, uh, in the theme of Halloween week, it’s scary just how close oddsmakers are projecting this one.
OSU is just a 2-point favorite at Caesars Sportsbook against the Jayhawks on the road. Those odds are slightly better elsewhere — DraftKings and FanDuel has OSU at -3.5 — but the line has been trending closer toward KU since it was first posted over the weekend.
And who can blame oddsmakers? I mean, OSU to me is the better team — and obviously the odds reflect that given that OSU is a slight favorite even on the road — but my goodness that is closer to a pick ’em than probably anyone could’ve guessed in the preseason.
