Oklahoma vs. Tulsa Prediction
No. 19 Oklahoma shouldn’t have much issue building its record to 3-0 when it faces unranked Tulsa at 3:30 p.m. ET on Saturday afternoon. That said, will the Sooners cover as a 28-point road favorite or is there a better bet on the board today in Tulsa, OK?

Oklahoma Sooners Game Notes
Dillon Gabriel was 19-for-27 passing for 176 yards and four touchdowns during Saturday’s 28-11 victory over Southern Methodist. He also had eight rushes for 20 yards. Gabriel has started the season with seven touchdowns and no turnovers as Oklahoma fought for the win with a fourth-quarter push against the Mustangs. Gabriel has dual-threat ability and should remain in fantasy starting line-ups when Oklahoma travels to play Tulsa next week.
Tulsa Golden Hurricane Game Notes
Roman Fuller completed 12 of 18 passes for 85 yards and one touchdown during Saturday’s 43-10 defeat to Washington. With Braylon Braxton (ankle) missing, Fuller saw significant action Saturday despite being the third quarterback on the depth chart. Cardell Williams started the game but injured his hand in the second quarter, forcing Fuller into the game. Fuller played fairly well, completely 70 percent of his passes for 85 yards and a touchdown versus the top 10 opponent. Williams and Braxton are both questionable for Saturday’s matchup with Oklahoma, so Fuller has a chance to start.

Oklahoma vs. Tulsa Betting Prediction
Give me the under. I think the Sooners can cash as 28-point favorites but they had their issues last week versus SMU. The biggest key today, however, is that Tulsa doesn’t have the offense to keep up once Oklahoma starts to fire on all cylinders. The Golden Hurricane’s ground game is currently working, so if they can have a little success in the time of possession battle, they can play keep away at times and keep the Sooners’ offense grounded. Either way, I don’t see Tulsa contributing enough points in order to cash the over today in Oklahoma.
