Oklahoma’s CeeDee Lamb going through warmups, says he is ‘good’

Oklahoma may have had its first break of tonight’s game against Baylor as it looks like CeeDee Lamb is healthy and ready to go.

No. 10 Oklahoma (8-1, 5-1) may have had its first break of tonight’s game against No. 13 Baylor (9-0, 6-0).

Star wide receiver CeeDee Lamb was reportedly ‘questionable’ for tonight’s game against Baylor. He is fully dressed out, going through initial warmups and is now out with the team in pregame stretches. By all accounts, Oklahoma’s best player is ready to go tonight.

As he was heading off the field earlier, he told some fans he was “good” with a smile on his face.

The junior has been Lincoln Riley’s big play and go-to receiver all season. Lamb has 983 receiving yards on 44 receptions, good for 22.3 yards a catch, and has hauled in 13 touchdowns.

Many of those touchdowns were short hitch routes that Lamb housed by breaking tackles and then evading an entire defense. He has truly been Oklahoma’s best offense since the season kicked off against Houston.

The Sooners and Baylor are set to kickoff at 6:30 p.m. CT on ABC.

Oklahoma’s CeeDee Lamb questionable against Baylor, per report

Unfortunate news has hit prior to Oklahoma’s game against Baylor as the Sooners’ best player is questionable to play tonight.

The Sooners offense may be jeopardy tonight.

No. 10 Oklahoma (8-1, 5-1) star receiver—maybe the best receiver in college football—CeeDee Lamb is questionable for the primetime, nationally televised matchup against No. 13 Baylor (9-0, 6-0), according to a report from George Stoia of the OU Daily.

Lamb has been Lincoln Riley’s big play and go-to receiver all of the season. The junior has 983 receiving yards on 44 receptions, good for 22.3 yards a catch, and has hauled in 13 touchdowns.

Many of those touchdowns were short hitch routes that Lamb housed by breaking tackles and then evading an entire defense.

This is his first game to miss since his freshman season.

Oklahoma and Baylor will kickoff at 6:30 p.m. CT on ABC.

Oklahoma at Baylor: Three things you need to know

1. Oklahoma enters the game ranked 10th in the College Football Playoff rankings, while Baylor checks in 13th despite the unblemished record — two spots behind a two-loss Florida team.

2. Oklahoma WR CeeDee Lamb racked up 167 receiving yards with two touchdowns in last week’s 42-41 shootout win against Iowa State, and he earned Big 12 Offensive Player of the Week for the second time this season.

3. Baylor will look to apply pressure on dynamic QB Jalen Hurts. The Bears lead the Big 12 conference with 29 sacks.

Prediction

Oklahoma 45, Baylor 38

Moneyline (ML)

Oklahoma (-371) heads into this one as an overwhelming favorite on the road despite Baylor (+280) and its unbeaten record. If any team is worth rolling the dice on, it’s the Bears, as you can nearly triple your money. Still, I expect Oklahoma to grind out a win in a one-possession game.

New to sports betting? A $10 wager on Baylor to win would return a profit of $28.

Against the Spread (ATS)

BAYLOR (+10.5, -115) has the horses to hang with Oklahoma (-10.5, -106). QB Charlie Brewer has completed 67.3 percent of his passes for 2,338 yards, 16 touchdowns and four interceptions this season, and WR Denzel Mims (44-675-8) leads the way at receiver. The Bears are 6-1 ATS in the past seven against winning teams, and 5-2 ATS in the past seven Big 12 battles.

Over/Under (O/U)

The OVER (67.5, -110) is a strong play with both of these high-octane offenses. The over is 18-7-1 in the past 26 overall for Oklahoma, and 8-3 in the past 11 against winning teams. The over is 20-8 in Baylor’s past 28 at home against winning teams on the road, and 5-1 in the past six meetings in Waco, too.

A statistical look at Oklahoma’s opponent (Baylor)

A statistical deep-dive into Oklahoma’s opponent, the twelfth ranked Baylor Bears.

[jwplayer Qey76C1W-er0jUifI]

Win in Waco.

This is one of the final boxes the Sooners will need to check if they have any chance of making the College Football Playoff.

No. 9 Oklahoma (8-1) and No. 12 Baylor (9-0) are set to play one of the top-ranked matchups in their series history this week, and the game will certainly have playoff implications for the victor.

Here is a statistical deep-dive into Baylor and Oklahoma’s best stats to attack on Saturday.

Hot Lamb

It’s no secret the Sooners will need Lamb to be good the rest of the year to have a shot at winning out, but this week he’ll need to be great. The Bears currently have the second-ranked defense in the Big 12 behind Iowa State, as they allowed just 9 points in regulation last week. But they’ve have a big-play problem all season long, and that’s where Lamb comes in. The Sooners No. 1 receiver has made it a habit to rip off long, explosive plays this season, and they’ll need exactly that this Saturday in Waco. He currently averages 22.3 yards per catch.

Good luck, Charlie

Baylor quarterback Charlie Brewer hasn’t exactly been on his A-game lately, but neither has Alex Grinch’s defense. Brewer on his worst day is still one of the top quarterbacks in the Big 12, as he’s already thrown for 2,338 yard this season, with 16 touchdowns and 4 interceptions. The Oklahoma defense will have to find ways to limit Brewer, or they’ll be in another shootout, and they might not leave with the win this time. 

Run Lincoln, run

Despite Kennedy Brooks having over 100 yards rushing last week, it still felt sporadic, and the Sooners couldn’t establish a thing offensively in the second half. Baylor’s defense is going to make stops, they have the talent and speed to do it. The Sooners will need to wear them out with consistent run game, and control the time of possession with the ground game. BU has given up 127.1 rushing yards per game so far this season.

CeeDee Lamb named Big 12 Offensive Player of the Week

CeeDee Lamb went off against Iowa State, earning him Big 12 offensive player of the week.

Expect anything different?

CeeDee Lamb went off against Iowa State, earning him Big 12 offensive player of the week.

Being the main offensive weapon against the Cyclones, Lamb could not be contained even if he was covered by three defenders.

Not only was he a threat through the air with his eight catches for 167 yards and a touchdown, but he was a huge help in the run game. Lamb is one of the best blocking wide receivers in the nation, proving his abilities once again last Saturday.

This is the fourth time this season that the offensive player of the week is a Sooner and the second time this season that Lamb has been recognized as the offensive player of the week.

Jalen Hurts has also won offensive player of the week twice and newcomer of the week twice. Safety, Brendan Radley-Hiles and linebacker, Kenneth Murray have each been awarded Big 12 defensive player of the week once. In total, players from Oklahoma have been recognized eight times this season.
