Why Oklahoma Will Win

The Sooners got it back.

This has been a grind of a year – losing five Big 12 games is never part of the plan – but easily getting by Oklahoma State for the 28-13 rivalry win was a huge help, at least the team’s going bowling, and now it’s about building for next year.

Texas Tech will hold on late. It’ll be a blast of an offensive show.
