My 8* NIT TOURNEY SLAM-DUNK is on Oklahoma State at 9:00 EST. I think the Cowboys will not only win this first-round matchup on Tuesday night at home, but will do so in blowout fashion. Because of that, I'm laying the points with confidence in this one. Wichita State finished 19-14 overall and 9-11 in the AAC, while Oklahoma State was 15-17 and 7-14 in the Big 12. The Cowboys though finished 8-3 in non-conference action. They each average almost the same, with the Shockers putting up 73.8 PPG on average, and the Cowboys averaging 72.6. The Big 12 was a much more difficult conference this year though in my opinion. The Cowboys beat Cincinnati 78-67 as 3.5-point dogs in their final regular season outing, but then lost to the Beacrats 87-68 in the Conference tournament. The Shockers advanced to the second round and fell 83-80 to Memphis, but in their final regular-season outing, they fell 73-63 at home to Tulsa as 12-point favorites. Look for the Cowboys depth to prove to be the difference here and lay the points.
