1. Oklahoma Sooners
Location: Boone Pickens Stadium, Stillwater, OK
Date: Nov. 4
Oklahoma 2016 Record: 10-2 (9-0 Big 12)*Bowl game has not been played yet
All-Time Record vs. Oklahoma: 18-86-7
It looks extremely weird and out of place. The fact that OU and OK State are not meeting on the final weekend of the season seems wrong. However, with the addition of the Big 12 championship game it makes sense.
The Sooners own a two-game winning streak against OK State including a crazy 53 point margin of victory during that two-game winning streak.
OK State is hoping their fortunes will take a turn for the better with Rudolph and Washington both returning along with a talented receiving corps that also includes Marcell Ateman and Chris Lacy.
Next: Mason Rudolph and James Washington staying at Oklahoma State for senior seasons
The Pokes have not beat the Sooners in Stillwater since 2011. If their fortunes are going to turn for the better then they will need to figure out a way to stop OU quarterback Baker Mayfield. He’s had his way with the OK State defense in the last two seasons.
A victory against OU would likely mean a good shot at the Big 12 title and contention for a berth in the College Football Playoff.
