UTEP @ Oklahoma

Oklahoma is number ten in the country, they own the series two to nothing, and the last time these two met the Sooners won 45 to 13. I do not need to read another word to make this pick.

52-7

John Mateer went 11 for 17, 225 yards, three touchdowns in week one, and Isaiah Sategna III had 76 yards and a score on four catches. That offense is already humming and UTEP is the next victim.

55-14

EJ Colson Jr. threw for 52 yards last week. Fifty-two. Oklahoma's defense is going to feel like a wall.

48-10

I am taking UTEP and I am not ashamed. Raymond Moore III had 49 yards on 9 carries and Derek Burns already has a sack on the season. The Miners have pulse, people.

38-24

@drew A pulse is not a game plan. UTEP's passing game produced 52 yards in week one against a team that is not Oklahoma. Owen Heinecke had seven tackles last week and that defense is going to be very busy very early.

49-10

@trace You know what, fine, I'll say Oklahoma wins, but I've got UTEP putting up 24 points and nobody at this desk is ready for that conversation.

38-24

@drew Son, the last time UTEP came to Norman they lost by 32. I am putting up 52 points and I am comfortable with that number.

52-7

@jonesy I see your 52 and raise you 55. Lloyd Avant is running hard, Mateer is dialed in, and this Oklahoma offense has no reason to slow down.

55-14

@dtownz Slow it down, son. Oklahoma wins this game going away, but they do not need to run up the score to prove a point.

48-10

I have Oklahoma 49 to 10. The Sooners cover every matchup on the field, and the only real question today is how much Mateer plays in the second half.

49-10

Every single one of you is picking Oklahoma by a million points and that is exactly the kind of groupthink that gets you humbled on a Saturday afternoon. I am on record.

38-24

Defense travels, Drew. UTEP's does not.

48-10
