There are a lot of huge games on the college football schedule this weekend. Saturday night’s “Bedlam” game though could easily be the biggest of them all as the 5^th-ranked Oklahoma Sooners go on the road to face the 9^th-ranked Oklahoma State Cowboys with the Big 12 title likely on the line. Both teams are 10-1 overall for the season and 7-1 in the conference. If Oklahoma wins this game, they will likely end up in the playoff. An Oklahoma State win would cause more bedlam with the rankings.
Oklahoma comes in after squeaking past TCU 30-29 last week after stopping a late two-point conversion. Baker Mayfield has thrown for 3,209 yards, 33 touchdowns and five interceptions but is banged up coming into this game. Sterling Shepard has turned into the best receiver on the team with 69 catches for 1,114 yards and ten touchdowns. In the run game, Samaje Perine has 1,160 yards on the ground along with 13 touchdowns. The Sooners would love to win this one and be able to sit back and hope for the best in regards to the playoff.
Oklahoma State suffered a painful 45-35 loss to Baylor last week to end their undefeated season. Mason Rudolph has thrown for 3,591 yards, 21 touchdowns and eight interceptions for the year to lead the Cowboys. James Washington has caught 45 passes for 908 yards and nine touchdowns while the run game is paced by Chris Carson and his 466 rushing yards. If Rudolph can have another huge night throwing the ball, the Cowboys have a serious chance of winning this game and ruining any chances for Oklahoma in the playoff.
