they're better. kansas was moving the ball on them pretty easily, kansas just didn't have a defense. stoops will have his troops ready. imo, OU by 2 td's as this pinkel's biggest game of his life.

Because OU won the first game convincingly. The final spread was only 10, but MU scored a meaningless touchdown in the final minute or so.

Also, OU should have the plurality of fan support. The game is in San Antonio, which is significantly closer to Norman than Columbia. OU fans bought their tickets in the summer. MU fans bought theirs in the last month.

OU has been in this position before. MU has not.

MU is a better team now than they were when they played the first time. They will have Tony Temple this time around. I don't think Tony Temple is a game-changer, but he might be.

I like ou here also but, i believe mizzou was leading this game midway through the third quarter. It was a pretty close game

Not sure what game you watched???

Missouri had a 24-23 lead to start the 4thQ.
Daniel was 37-47 for 361 yards.
Missouri 418 yards to 384.

HOW IS THAT CONVINCING???

The difference was Missouri 3 turnovers hurt them more than OU's 2.

The turning point was after OU scored to make it 29-24, Mizzou fumbled and it was returned for a td and was Game Over.

I agree that OU should be slight favorite,but not sold they win.

Well, believe it or not, the Sooners year in and
year out are the team to beat. Thus, the spread.
When's the last time you saw Mizzou playing for
5 out of 6 Big 12 championship.
