Oklahoma may be the slight betting favorites this week, but many national outlets have picked the Longhorns to win this week.
That is especially true for the ESPN College Gameday who unanimously selected Texas to defeat the Sooners today.

Many cited Sam Ehlinger’s will to win in his final OU-Texas matchup, and the continued struggles of the Oklahoma defense.
Herbstreit went on to joke as they transitioned to the next game that a screen shot showcasing the crew’s Texas picks would be everywhere if Oklahoma won the game.
There is no doubt about that, in fact it’s already started…
