Oklahoma vs Kansas State Game Preview
Why Oklahoma Will Win
No, the Oklahoma offense isn’t working like it’s supposed to, and this hasn’t been the dominant force everyone was expected, but it’s 4-0, it’s been pushed, and this might just be a case of getting through the early problems before it all starts to rock.
Last year at this time OU was 1-2 – with a loss to Kansas State – because of a massive turnover problem. The mistakes have been limited a bit with just three turnovers in the first four games.
Spencer Rattler has been fine. There were a few turnovers against Tulane, but he’s hitting 74% of his passes for an offense that’s been more about control than fury – and that’s okay.

What’s Going To Happen
Can Kansas State get steady play out of the quarterback?

This will be on the Kansas State defense.
The Oklahoma offense would have to take things up a few levels to put this away with an explosive scoring day, and that’s not happening against a K-State D that keeps the game alive.
The Wildcats have won two straight in the series, and make it three with the Sooners failing to put the game away when they have a chance in the first half.
