#19 Oklahoma Sooners (2-0) at Tulsa Golden Hurricane (1-1)

Saturday, 2:30 p.m. CT, ESPN2

OU looked extremely unimpressive last week. It took them more than three quarters to score over 14 points against a mediocre SMU team. The Sooners play on the road this week in what should be an electric environment in Tulsa, but the Golden Hurricane probably don’t have what it takes to pull off an upset after losing 43-10 to Washington in Week 2.

Final Score Prediction: 34-14, Oklahoma

Big 12 Football Record: 4-0
