Oklahoma Sooners To Ruin Missouri's Homecoming Saturday

No. 1 Oklahoma (6-0) at No. 11 Missouri (6-0)
5:00 pm (PDT) - TV: ABC

Oklahoma -3 @ Missouri: Lots of history-busting Mizzou can do this week with a win; be 7-0 for the first time since 1960, avenge their epic 2007 season with their only losses coming from Sooners and 1986‘s worst loss (77-0) in school history, but choosing Oklahoma as your homecoming game this year is a bit cocky. That is bulletin board material to help inspire the Sooners more than need be.

The Sooners team we saw last week against Iowa State (52-0) is what we’ll see this week and it’s a major upgrade in what Missouri has faced in 2010 thus far. Mizzou has shown a great defense this year, but beating up on Colorado, Texas A&M, Miami-Ohio, McNeese State doesn’t get me excited as a potential backer this week; San Diego State almost beat Missouri at home.

The Sooners have had their struggles as well this year, but it looks like everything is aligned, set and ready to go as they are the BCS number one team in the country. They won’t let an upstart -- who they have been beating down for their entire history -- be the ones to knock them from No. 1. I could easily see the Sooners running away with this one and ruining the King and Queen of homecoming’s night.
