“It’s frustrating. It’s the end of the year, and you’ve got two good football teams that you want everyone to see the best of everything”, Patterson said. But the Sooners still leads the series all time with a record of 84-18-7. That team is Oklahoma, which is why they are favored by a comfortable margin to pick up the win.

Instead, the Big 12 champion will be the victor of No. 5 Oklahoma at No. 9 Oklahoma State on Saturday night.
The other two teams that could win the Big 12 need some help. But that one-game anomaly is common in college football. No. 2 Oklahoma beat No. 3 Oklahoma State 24-14 in Norman in 1984, and No. 3 Oklahoma State beat No. 10 Oklahoma 44-10 in Stillwater in 2011. Fans can live stream the game free by clicking this link. The Cowboys had their undefeated run end last week at the hands of Baylor, but they still have a lot to play for. It was especially hard to swallow considering the high-quality quarterback play both of these teams are used to having.

Oklahoma State can still win its second conference title in five years with a victory. Rudolph, a Northwestern standout, has passed for 3,591 yards, with 21 touchdown passes and just eight interceptions for the ninth-ranked Cowboys. He will be looking to add to that total as he faces a red hot Oklahoma defense that was able to stuff TCU on a game-winning two-point conversion last week. Perine and Mixon sustained ankle injuries during the third quarter. “All three are expected to play tomorrow”.
“We called a play we hadn’t worked on all week, we brought one of our corners off the edge and he was able to get ahold of his legs”, Patterson said. But the key player that Oklahoma needed was Mayfield.
While their quarterback has become a Heisman Trophy candidate, the Sooners have become a national championship contender. This was about the Horned Frogs beating a rival, about grinding out a great season despite losing half their defensive starters and circumstances that should have relegated them to the middle of the pack. The only blemish on the Sooners season is a loss to Texas in the Cotton Bowl and sadly for OU, it’s a very bad loss. The Baylor offense couldn’t work in the slop, the TCU defense stepped up when it had to, and Trevone Boykin came up with the type of gut-check effort that goes well beyond the statistics.
