Oklahoma Sooners vs. Baylor Bears: Sooners Wire Staff Predictions

Get ready for Saturday’s matchup between the Oklahoma Sooners and the Baylor Bears with our Sooners Wire Staff Predictions.

Oklahoma 44, Baylor 31

There’s no need to conserve energy now. It’s full steam ahead. The Oklahoma Sooners’ bye week is behind them, and the Sooners head to Waco 9-0. Despite the CFP rankings being unfavorable, I still have a strong belief everything will take care of itself, and as long as Oklahoma wins out it will be in the playoff. That starts with a Sooners win in Waco where it took a monster effort to fight back from being 28-3 deficit the last time they visited. This is Caleb Williams’ second true road game and it provides much more of a hostile environment than Lawrence, Kansas, ever will unless it’s on a basketball court.

He’s been unflappable so far and his coach has been even more unflappable specifically in the month of November where he’s 14-0 since taking over as the head coach.

The Sooners will win this game and I think it will be stylish largely because the Sooners have been disrespected twice in the first two CFP rankings. Baylor’s season is on the verge of unraveling and three touchdown passes by Williams and a rushing touchdown from both Eric Gray and Williams lead the way as the Sooners defense locks up these Baylor running backs.
