The Sooners are currently in the midst of a three-game winning streak after beating TCU, Texas and Kansas State to start the month of October. Mayfield completed 25-of-31 passes for 346 yards with four touchdowns and one interception. Dede Westbrook was on the receiving end of three of those touchdown passes, as the receiver racked up nine receptions and 184 yards in the win. That victory gave Oklahoma a 4-2 record overall but the Sooners are just 2-4 against the spread this season.

Texas Tech enters play with a 3-3 record after dropping two straight. The Red Raiders were suffocated by West Virginia’s underrated defense a week ago and were held under 38 points for the first time all season. Mahomes still threw for 305 yards on 28-of-44 passing with one touchdown and one interception, but the defense couldn’t stop the Mountaineers from racking up 332 yards on the ground.
