| OKLAHOMA SOONERS | -290 |
| MISSOURI TIGERS | +240 |
Missouri currently sits mid-table in the SEC standings at 7–3 overall and 3–3 in conference play. They will visit Memorial Stadium in Norman as underdogs with a +7.5 spread. They'll need to draw on the momentum from their 2024 victory as a source of strength heading into this matchup.
The Tigers will rely heavily on their star running back, Ahmad Hardy, who has already racked up 15 touchdowns on 197 carries this season. Meanwhile, quarterback Beau Pribula will need to elevate his performance, as his season so far has fallen short of expectations.
Oklahoma, ranked #11, come into this matchup aware of their historical edge in the series and their high expectations for the end of the season. They'll view this game as an opportunity to showcase their power and depth. A win here could also help them climb higher in the rankings as they await other results across the SEC.
The Sooners’ last game was a narrow 23–21 win over Alabama, who entered the matchup ranked #4. That victory put Oklahoma firmly on the national radar as a team to watch. The Sooners secured the win largely through their dominant defense, which forced three turnovers that directly led to 17 points.
The Missouri–Oklahoma game has the Sooners as favorites with a -7.5 spread. The over/under suggests this will be a defensive-focused matchup with a 41.5 total. The moneyline lists the Sooners to win at -290 and the Tigers to pull an upset at +240.
We feel that momentum is definitely on Oklahoma’s side after their win over Alabama last week. Look for them to handle Missouri at home this weekend. Our pick is Oklahoma Sooners -7.5 on the point spread.
