*10* Coach's Playbook on Oklahoma.
The biggest game this Saturday will feature two teams competing for the top spot in the BIG12 Conference. The undefeated Baylor Bears host the 8-1 Oklahoma Sooners, and Baylor is a small favorite. The Bears have beaten the Sooners by double-digits in each of the last two seasons, but I think they'll struggle here in this year's contest.
Here are my keys to the game:
1. Quarterbacks - In each of the last two meetings, the Bears enjoyed a huge advantage with Bryce Petty as the starter, but that's not going to be the case here on Saturday. Petty has moved on to the NFL, and his successor Seth Russell suffered a season ending neck injury against Iowa State. That forces freshman Jarret Stidham to make just his second career start in a pressure packed situation. Stidham has been pretty good in limited action, but you have to give Oklahoma the edge with Baker Mayfield who comes in completing over 70 percent of his passes for 2812 yards, 28 TDs and just 4 INTs.
2. Defense - The Bears have had one of the nation's weakest schedules so far, and still they rank 58th nationally allowing 25 points per game. The Sooners on the other hand boast a Top 20 defense allowing opponents to average just over 18 points per game.
3. X-Factor - The road team is 12-3 ATS in the last 15 meetings between the two teams.
Selection: This is a play on the Oklahoma Sooners (10*)
