College Football Betting Trends
Kansas
The Jayhawks are 11-23 ATS in their last 34 games against a winning team and 5-12 ATS in their last 17 games in October.
Oklahoma
The Sooners are 5-0-1 against the spread in their last six games following a win and 3-1-1 ATS in their last five road games.
Prediction:
The Sooners haven’t had trouble beating Kansas, but the Jayhawks have managed to cover the spread in the last two meetings. The Sooners are a dominant offensive team and Kansas hasn’t shown it has the defense to stop Oklahoma in the slightest. Kansas has had some offensive outbursts this year, but the Sooner defense looks to be better than previous years. Oklahoma can put up a big number today while getting enough stops to cover this lofty spread. If TCU can beat Kansas by more than 32, so can Oklahoma.
