    Oklahoma St is 68 in SRS and 58 in Sagarin. We are 35 and 38. Team Rankings has us 34 and them 54.

    Take a look at their National Rankings in the major stats. Unless Oklahoma St is suddenly a lot better than they were for most of the season this is a game we should win rather easily.

    Total Offense 86
    Pass Eff Offense 76
    Int thrown 110
    Rush Offense 73
    TO Forced 120
    Total Defense 88

    I remember Thurman Thomas running all over Husky Stadium in the 1985 opener after the Sooner fans gave us a standing O at the Orange Bowl. Big loss

    UW won at Stillwater a couple years earlier.

    Do you remember who sang the national anthem that day? Extra points for the right answer.
    Neil Young?

    I didn't watch their Oklahoma game but their overall numbers on the season are surprisingly bad.

    Will UW be favored by 6 or 7?

    UW has not beat amyone impressive... after beating OU I would expect the line to be a little lower in the 3-4 pt range and let the bets fall
