Missouri State at Oklahoma 9/12/20 - College Football Picks & Predictions
Oklahoma is coming to the game here with a total of 8 starters coming back from last year. The downside is the Sooners are having to break in a new quarterback in Spencer Rattler the freshman. However, Rattler was a great high school quarterback and was featured on a Netflix series for being a good quarterback.
Defensively the Sooners are bringing back 9 starters. The defense last year looked really good for the Sooners and now would like to improve even more on the year. What else is impressive is the fact that Jalen Redmond is coming back and last year he ended up recording 5.5 sacks and now is the second string on the depth chart.
The Missouri State Bears are playing in the FCS and with the playoffs already postponed for the FCS, the Bears are going to look to play in some games that can really help them out. The Bears for their part are coming to the game herewith what can only be hoped is a good offense. The downside is the Bears have to face a very strong defense here.
Defensively the Bears will be challenged. The Sooners are breaking in a new quarterback, but it will definitely be a challenge for the Bears to try to keep the Sooners offense in check. To make it even worse the Bears did not really get a lot of practice before the game here.
The Sooners are coming in as a ranked team, but also are coming to the game with a strong offense and a great defense. Look for that to continue to play a role in the game here. However, with an FCS opponent it will allow Rattler to get settled in for the game and get ready to play some great football on the year. Final Score Prediction, Oklahoma Sooners win and cover ATS 70-3.
