Oklahoma Sooners @ Oklahoma State Cowboys Pick & Preview

Oklahoma Sooners @ Oklahoma State Cowboys Pick & Preview: I think the Cowboys are better than the Sooners and they’re playing at home. That’s basically what it comes down to, and I don’t think 3 points is going to matter much – so I didn’t take that spread into account, really. It’s just a field goal, anyway, a short one at that, and who misses short field goal, eh Boise?

The common theme in this game has been, “Oklahoma always owns this rivalry” and that’s true, Oklahoma State hasn’t beaten the Sooners since way back in 2002. Also, if winning hasn’t been enough, in the betting world its been damn near the same outcome – Oklahoma has won ATS in 6 of the last 7 years. But, there’s a reason for those 7 straight wins, the Sooners were the better football team during those years. And it wasn’t close very often. Oklahoma has been favored by double digits in 8 of the last 10 meetings. You feel me, here? History is always an interesting thing to look at, but just because Sam Bradford kicked the Cowboys’ butts doesn’t mean Landry Jones will, right?

Speaking of Landry Jones, there’s a chance he doesn’t play in this game, because of his “head injury” suffered last week in the team’s beat down of Baylor.

Oklahoma has been good lately, pounding Baylor after destroying Texas Tech – but those teams aren’t what I’d call good, OK State is.
