5* NCAAF Game of the Week on Oklahoma -6
The Sooners will be lacking no incentive when they take the field Saturday as they can still win the Big 12 outright and play in a BCS bowl with a win over TCU and a Kansas State loss to Texas Saturday night. Oklahoma is the superior team, and I believe it takes care of business here to give itself a chance at the outright title.

Oklahoma's poor defensive performances in its last two games should really serve as a wake-up call here. Consider that the Sooners are on an 8-0 ATS run in road games after allowing 24 points or more in the first half of their last game. They have won these eight by an average score of 31.9 to 14.5. They are also on a 7-0 ATS run in road games after allowing 17 points or more in the first half in two straight games. They have won these seven by an average score of 40.6 to 26.0.

The Horned Frogs enter off a big win over Texas, but they are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games following a victory. They are also 0-7 ATS in their last 7 home games versus a team that has a winning record on the road. The Sooners are a perfect 5-0 when playing away from home this season and have won these by an average of 19.2 points.

TCU has not covered the spread in consecutive games this season and is just 1-8 ATS after 1 or more consecutive covers over the last 2 seasons. Take Oklahoma.
