Lets finish the Regular Season out strong. It's just a 1 game difference but 8-4 sounds a lot better to me than 7-5. Also don't want to end your regular season losing to a team that is 1-10 going into the game.

FanDuel currently has us as a 14.5 point favorite.

I'd take Iowa State to win, but I wouldn't take us to beat the 15.5 spread. Hope I'm wrong.
 
Oklahoma State is really bad. Arkansas State/Oklahoma State would probably be a toss up game. Even if we don't play well we should be able to win this one.
 
Having been a Cyclone fan through the worst of times has taught me that when a team has an awful season, the last game often generates a very inspired effort, especially if it's played at home. Almost as if winning the last game will erase much of the disappointment generated throughout the season.

I expect a super inspired effort from Okie State on Saturday. They've played much better since they fired Gundy as evidenced by their two recent very narrow losses to KState and UCF.

The good news is Matt Campbell is very good at not allowing our guys to take an opponent lightly. He knows if we just roll our helmets out there in Stillwater and expect to win, we'll get beat.

I'm expecting a win, but I wouldn't bet on us covering the 14.5 spread. Hope I'm wrong and we cover.

Guys, we beat Kansas by 24 and didn't really have much trouble doing it, but there's some doubt about beating Oklahoma State by two touchdowns? They're barely a real football team and the only reason people show up to the games is so they can take their shirt off or dress up in a banana costume.

Their QB has a TD/INT ratio of 3 to 6 in 8 games. His last name is Flores and it's pronounced "floors".

Their last two games have been one score losses, which is progress, but they still only scored 20 points total in that span. If they come close to covering something has gone gravely wrong.

In short, every week is different and this one will be too.

I would never underestimate any team that has nothing to lose.

A plucky team that hasn't given up on the season, playing on senior day vs a team still riddled with injuries and has shown not to play up to their capabilities on the road...Gulp.
