Championship Game

Oklahoma over Texas

Notes

Last year Texas beat Oklahoma in the regular season and Oklahoma got revenge in the Champ game. Don’t think their will be a similar repeat this year. But I do think Oklahoma will end up losing a road game (say Oklahoma St or Kansas St) during the regular season. This may be one of the better Oklahoma teams if their defense can get on track. I don’t think Hurts will have quite the season as the previous 2 Heisman winners (won’t be 3 for 3). Texas should have a very good season but they are probably a year away from truly being on Oklahoma’s level. Very little separates TCU, Oklahoma St, Kansas St, Iowa St, West Virginia, Baylor, and Texas Tech. It’s a jumbled mess there.

Oklahoma should make the playoffs again, but still be behind Alabama and Clemson. Texas will be in a New Years 6 bowl.

Oklahoma #3 seed in playoffs, Texas a top 10 team. TCU in top 25 and Iowa St receiving votes for top 25. 8 teams making it to a bowl out of 10.
