Pick Ideas

Oklahoma +7.5

Consider Oklahoma +7.5: one projection has Texas winning 24-17, a seven-point margin that covers the hook, though a recent podcast said Oklahoma's defense remains strong but has spent too much time on the field because John Mateer has struggled.

Over 39.5 points

Over 39.5 is a modest lean because a published model projects 41 combined points.
