Hamilton shot 11-16 from the floor and made 5-8 3-pointers to help Texas cover the 3-point road-spread in college basketball betting odds while the game played UNDER the 152-point total posted at online sportsbooks. "Jordan is really learning how to play now," Texas head coach Rick Barnes said after the game. "Because he's so competitive, if he misses a shot, he wants to get it and go try to make up for it. He's got a scorer's mentality." Bet Texas -6.5 as favorites in college basketball betting odds against Oklahoma or take the Colts -6 in Super Bowl picks with a 10% bonus and 110% poker instant bonus.
