Stay on top of the latest College Football<\/a> updates direct from Las Vegas!<\/em><\/p>\n Oklahoma travel to Boone Pickens Stadium on Saturday to take on Oklahoma State in the Bedlam Series, with both teams looking to force their way into the National Playoff picture with a big win and cover in this one.<\/p>\n Oklahoma come off a 28-21 win last weekend against a good Iowa State team, but were fortunate in that one as they were outgained in a lot of that contest. The Cyclones held a 25 to 14 first down advantage in that game, they outyarded Oklahoma by almost 60 yards as well, and had almost 17 minutes more time of possession than the Sooners, with a final potential game winning drive held short by an interception late by Iowa State, so it was a far from impressive performance by Oklahoma in that game.<\/p>\n And that\u2019s been the tale of this Oklahoma team all season. The Sooners have benefitted from an average of 2.7 opponent fumbles per game this season at home, the highest in the country, they have accumulated 1.1 giveaways per game on average as well, and have a +1.7 turnover margin advantage over their last three starts also, tied for 9th most in the country right now so, this is a team that has benefitted from fortunate breaks all season and they\u2019ll need to continue to do so here if they\u2019re to have any chance of overturning this well-oiled Oklahoma State team this weekend.<\/p>\n The Cowboys have one of the most elite defensive units in the country right now. Oklahoma State ranks 3rd in the country on defense this year, giving up just 253.8 ypg on average, and that\u2019s improved again to just 171.3 ypg over their last three starts, almost 40 yards per game less than anyone else in the country right now.<\/p>\n On top of that, the Cowboys lead the nation in total sacks, tackles for loss and 3rd down defense as well, with their offense improving steadily also, averaging 482.3 ypg and 41.3 ppg over their last four starts.<\/p>\n With three of Oklahoma State\u2019s last four opponents not even breaking the 3 point barrier (Kansas 3, West Virginia 3, Texas Tech 0), this team is peaking at the right time and I see them having far too much for an Oklahoma Sooners team here on Saturday that has benefitted far too often from bounce of the ball type situations this year.<\/p>\n Take the Oklahoma State Cowboys to win and cover this one at home on Saturday against Oklahoma in the Bedlam Series.<\/p>\n \ud83d\udcb0An argument could be made that this is the best sports week of the year: Wall-to-wall college basketball, Thanksgiving NFL and college football regular season finales. 7-Day All-Access packages are the lowest price of the year. \u2014 WagerTalk (@WagerTalk) November 22, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\nOklahoma State vs Oklahoma Predictions<\/h3>\n
