Oklahoma vs. Kansas Betting Odds
Oklahoma vs. Kansas Picks
The Sooners have been one of the best passing offenses in college football and rank seventh with 328.6 passing yards per game. Senior quarterback Dillon Gabriel has been a Heisman Trophy candidate as he is 166-of-233 (71.2 completion percentage) for 2,131 yards with 19 passing touchdowns to three interceptions.
Gabriel had 253 passing yards and three touchdowns last week against UCF, so expect the over on his passing stats.
The Jayhawks' offense has been completely dominant on the rushing attack and is 12th in the nation with 211.7 rushing yards per game. Junior running back Devin Neal currently has 90 rushes for 659 yards (7.3 yards per carry) with six rushing touchdowns and 17 catches for 184 yards (10.8 yards per reception) with a receiving touchdown.
He should be able to get a good amount of yards per carry and hit the over on his rushing yards.

Oklahoma vs. Kansas Prediction
The Oklahoma Sooners have been one of the best teams in college football and have a real shot of making the College Football Playoff with their performance this season. The Kansas Jayhawks have an injury to their quarterback and a dominant rushing attack that will take too much time off the clock to be successful.
The Sooners are 6-1 against the spread this season for a reason and should be able to win by double digits on the road in this game as well.
Prediction: Oklahoma Sooners -10
