No. 12 Oklahoma (5-0) travel to unranked Texas (3-2) in a rival Big 12 conference game. The Sooners will be hoping to silence the Cotton Bowl crowd and overwhelm the Longhorns as they did in 2012.
The Sooners are on a roll and sit at the top of the league with the 9th best defence in college football. QB Blake Bell has thrown for 835 yards, 6 TD's and no picks. RB Brennan Clay has 68 carries for 450 yards and 3 TD's. WR's Sterling Shepard and Jalen Saunders have almost identical stats. Shepard has 21 catches for 266 yards and 3 TD's and Saunders has 22 catches for 213 yards and 3 TDs'.
The home side have had defensive issues on the field. Their defensive co-ordinator was replaced after just two games. QB David Ash has thrown for 720 yards, 7 TD's and 2 picks. Ash has been sacked 4 times this season. RB Johnathan Gray has 439 rushing yards for 4 TD's. WR Jaxon Shipley has 27 catches for 288 yards. WR Mike Davis has 26 catches for 287 yards and 4 TD's.
Sooners head coach Bob Stoops and Longhorns head coach Mack Brown will demand a quick start from their teams in this one as they both aim for bragging rights. The visitors will look to control the game on both sides of the football. The odds are stacked in favour of Oklahoma in what could be a high scoring game.
Key men
Sooners - Blake Bell, the QB knows how to use his weapons and will look to undue the fragile Texans defence.
Longhorns - David Ash, he will need to make the plays and hope that the offence can put some scores on the board.
