All Pokes Staff Score Predictions: Oklahoma State vs. Houston
The Oklahoma State Cowboys are hitting the road to Houston to take on the Cougars in Week 12 of the college football season. This is a crucial game for the Cowboys as they need to win each of their final two games for the Big 12 standings purposes.
The two teams square off Saturday at 3 p.m. CT on ESPN2. Here is how the All Pokes staff predicted the game to go in Houston this weekend.

Oklahoma State needs to beat Houston to give itself a shot at the Big 12 title this weekend. Ollie Gordon helps OSU get back on track with a win in Houston.
The Cowboys take care of the ball and limit any big plays from the Cougars. Although it may not look pretty, the Cowboys should seize control of the game around the third quarter.
OSU 34, Houston 17

Oklahoma State will get back on track against Houston. The Cougars are ranked 93rd in the country in rushing defense, and they are facing Ollie Gordon, who leads the nation in rushing yards.
Houston has had some close games this season, but the Cougars are inconsistent. You don't know what team you are going to get on Saturday. You know what you are going to get from OSU. The Cowboys are going to take this one.
OSU 36, Houston 14

The Cowboys will, out of necessity, bounce back against the Cougars. This season, the Cougars have shown their ability to play teams better than them closely, but the Cowboys are coming off a huge loss.
Watch out for a huge bounce back game from Ollie Gordon and the rest of the offense as they try and create a path to the conference championship game for themselves.
OSU 31, Houston 23
