Big 12 Total of the Year - Scott "The Bulldog" Rickenbach CFB Rotation #401 Saturday 10* Top Play OVER the total in Oklahoma Sooners vs Oklahoma State Cowboys @ 7:30 ET - I am well aware of the fact that each of these teams are producing some solid defensive numbers. However, I am also well aware of the fact that Oklahoma has a scary good offense and the Cowboys are ultra talented on offense that should have WR Wallace back for this one as well. Prior to struggling to score without Wallace in their most recent game, the Cowboys had averaged 33 points per game in their 4 preceding games. Yes, the Sooners are off a strong effort on defense but their 5 preceding games saw them allow 32.4 points per game. Other than games against a bad Kansas team and an FCS school, Missouri State, Oklahoma's defense has not been that impressive. As for the Cowboys defense I know they have some good numbers this season but the Sooners always seem to give them a ton of trouble and OU comes into this game on an extreme surge on offense. Oklahoma has scored 62 points in each of their last 2 games and they are averaging 46 points on the season. The Sooners are loaded with confidence right now and both teams are coming off bye weeks too. That means extra time to work in a few extra wrinkles on offense for this massive annual rivalry game. You know Oklahoma State will have a few trick plays up their sleeve as per usual. We are getting a lower total on this game this season (compared to this same match-up in recent seasons) because each team has some better numbers on defense but I just can not see OSU getting many stops in this one. I also don't see the Cowboys going down without a fight in this one. That said, the over is the way to go here as they allowed 28 points or more in 4 of their first 5 games against FBS teams this season and have scored at least 30 points in all of their games. You can see why I am expecting these teams to get well into the 60s and likely even 70s in this one. The last time they met in Norman, the teams combined for 95 points! Look for another wild one here. 10* OVER the total in Oklahoma
