Oklahoma at Tulsa picks and predictions
Prediction
Oklahoma 48, Tulsa 9
Moneyline
Even though Oklahoma should cruise to a road win on Saturday over Tulsa, just AVOID the moneyline in this game. Wagering on a team at -5000 odds is never a good idea in sports betting.
Against the spread
OKLAHOMA -28.5 (-110) is the play against the spread with the Sooners covering the spread in each of their first 2 contests this season. Tulsa also has 2 QBs on its roster who are questionable for Saturday’s matchup, which could prevent the offense from doing much damage against Oklahoma.
The Golden Hurricane are also 0-1-1 ATS to begin the season after going 3-8-1 ATS in 2022.
Over/Under
While the Sooners should score with ease on Saturday, UNDER 59.5 (-110) is how I’d wager on the total in this showdown. Oklahoma has allowed 11 points all season (all 11 points came in Week 2 against SMU) and Tulsa could be without its starting QB.
Both of these programs are a combined 1-3 to the Over in the 1st 2 weeks of the season.
