This game has the potential to be the game of the weekend. Both Ohio State and Oklahoma began the year inside the Top 5, but the Sooners fell to Houston. The benefit of playing in a game like this for Oklahoma is a win gets them right back into the college football playoff discussion.

Oklahoma is an underdog at home for the first time since 2000 here, but in that game they upset No. 1 Nebraska. Ohio State has not been challenged to date, beating up on Bowling Green and Tulsa by a combined 125-13 score.

Baker Mayfield needs to have a big game for the Sooners. Bob Stoops’ team is talented and has some experience coming back, Ohio State is one of the least experienced team in the country after having so many head to the NFL Draft last season.

Oklahoma has a strong run game, Joe Mixon and Samaje Perine have both found the end zone this season and are averaging almost seven yards per carry combined. That will be the difference in the game as the Sooners show up angry and ready to play.
