The Saturday slate of NCAA Tournament games has an exciting 8-9 seeded matchup between the Missouri Tigers at Oklahoma Sooners. Surprisingly, there’s not a ton of interest in this game from the bettors’ perspective; only two other Saturday gams have a lower handle of bets. Not to worry, sometimes the best finds are the ones everyone overlooks.
It’s usually a coin flip in the 8-9 battles, so we’ll dive in a little extra to see who has the advantage. If the college basketball regular season was any indication, this edition of March Madness will be a wild one. Here are the key trends and my predictions to help you find an edge on the NCAAB betting picks markets.

Missouri vs Oklahoma Game Info
Missouri Tigers (16-9) vs Oklahoma Sooners (15-10)
Date: Saturday, March 20, 2021
Start Time: 7:25 p.m. EST
Venue: Lucas Oil Stadium – Indianapolis, IN
Coverage: TNT
While the number of bets is right around 50-50, Oklahoma is getting 85% of the money. That’s certainly an eyebrow-raising number, considering the Sooners have lost five of their last six games. Perhaps, the masses are intrigued by Oklahoma winning the most recent meeting (77-66) between the teams last season.
Missouri vs Oklahoma Spread Trends and Prediction: Missouri (+2)
I have to go against the money here. After seeing Missouri in action earlier this season, I was very impressed by their ball handling and movement on offense. The Tigers a very entertaining watch, and they should beat a Sooners team that is coming in slumping badly.
Missouri vs Oklahoma Total Trends and Prediction: Over 141 points
There’s not much of a story to tell from the betting numbers on the total. By a slim margin, we’re seeing more bets on the over. What a shocker- the people want to see points. I don’t love either end of the total, but I’ll be a sucker for the over in this spot. As I said, Mizzou is a lot of fun to watch and should crank up the excitement in this game.
