Alright folks, it’s Bedlam time in Oklahoma, which has traditionally meant great news for Sooners fans and bad news for the rest.
But don’t let the lopsided series record fool you, this game has been too close for comfort as of late (even though Oklahoma has won 13 of the last 15). Don’t expect any less this season.
Where this game has, as of late, been ruled by high-scoring offensive affairs, it might just be the winning team’s defense getting the lion’s share of praise this time around.
Oklahoma State boasts a top-to-bottom elite defense capable of going blow-for-blow with Spencer Rattler, while Oklahoma’s front-loaded and aggressive group will wreak havoc along the line of scrimmage, making things difficult on both Spencer Sanders and Chuba Hubbard.
As has often been the case for this series over the past decade, it may come down to just a handful of plays that decide this one. Should that hold true, you’ve got to keep an eye on difference-makers like Ronnie Perkins and Tylan Wallace.
