Advice and prediction
Look, it’s really pretty simple for this game. This game would be an embarrassing loss for the Sooners. Yes, it’s a rivalry game, and anything can happen, but at home vs. the last-place team in the league, you just can’t lose this one.
I think the best and safest bet is Oklahoma and the money line just because, with it being a rivalry, it could be closer than people think. But Oklahoma should also cover the spread because they are just that much better.
Prediction: Oklahoma wins and covers 78-61.
