First glance at this Tulsa program shows their best success in decades, and when the line tops the 30-point mark it makes it seem like a number that they can touch. From 2007-12, this Tulsa team won 10 or more games four times. The bad news is that they won 10 or more games just two other times since 1980. The reality is that they have not won more than three games in the last two years. Despite their 2-0 start this year, they are still a wobbly program that is going to struggle, especially vs. a team such as Oklahoma. If anything points to the fact that this number, as big as it looks, is reasonable, as they lost to Oklahoma 52-7 last season. The fact is the Sooners played this team during their tenure as a 10+ win team, and the last five meetings, which have all taken place since 2007, the Sooners have beaten them by a combined score of 257-62. That is almost 40 points per game. The Sooners will add to that in this one with another easy win and cover. Lay the points on Oklahoma.
