Oklahoma Sooners vs Texas Longhorns prediction

The Texas Longhorns play their best ball at home, where they’re 13-4 SU, and they already beat Oklahoma by 15 points on the road back in January. Texas should be favored. However, Texas has also been hit or miss this year and is 11-18-1 ATS on the season. You can argue the Oklahoma Sooners have the better body of work, and they’d love nothing more than to get revenge in this spot. It’s also a rivalry game, which can’t be ignored. It should be a fun one. I want the points with the Sooners in my pocket. Give me the road dog.
