The Oklahoma Sooners and TCU Horned Frogs meet in a week 7 Big 12 college football meeting from Memorial Stadium in Norman, Oklahoma on Saturday afternoon.
The TCU Horned Frogs will look to add to their 52-31 win over Texas Tech last time out. Max Duggan has thrown for 1,003 yards, 9 touchdowns and 2 picks on 64.7% passing while Zach Evans leads TCU in rushing with 586 rushing yards and Kendre Miller has 302 rushing yards with the two combining for 11 rushing TDs. Taye Barber has 205 receiving yards for the Horned Frogs while four other Horned Frogs have at least 100 receiving yards this season. Defensively, Dee Winters leads TCU with 32 total tackles while Dylan Horton has a pair of sacks this season.
The Oklahoma Sooners will look to build on their 55-48 win in a thriller over Texas last time out. Spencer Rattler’s thrown for 1,371 yards, 10 touchdowns and 5 interceptions while Caleb Williams has 314 passing yards with a pair of scores. Kennedy Brooks leads the Sooners with 535 rushing yards and 6 scores while Eric Gray has 282 rushing yards. Marvin Mims leads Oklahoma’s receiving unit with 19 catches for 400 yards while Michael Woods II and Mario Williams each have 200+ receiving yards. Four other Sooners have at least 100 receiving yards this season. Defensively, Pat Fields leads the Sooners with 34 total tackles while Perrion Winfrey has a team-high 4.5 sacks. Nik Bonitto has 4 sacks and Isaiah Thomas has 3.5 sacks this season.
TCU is 1-3-1 ATS in their last 5 games overall and 5-1 ATS in their last 6 road games while the under is 4-0 in their last 4 games as an underdog. Oklahoma is 7-3 ATS in their last 10 conference games and 9-3 ATS in their last 12 home games against a team with a winning road record while the over is 38-18 in their last 56 games in October.
I get the case that could be made for either side here, but truthfully, I’m looking at the over here. These are two teams that have had serious defensive issues this season, but they’re also two teams that can hang points on the board in bunches. I could easily see this being a game that hits 70 points if not more, so give me the over.
