Missouri comes to Norman on Saturday in a very unusual start to conference play for Oklahoma. OU hasn't played a conference game in September since 2001 when KSU came calling to Norman, OU winning 38-37 in a thriller.

Missouri is fresh off a drubbing of Western Illinois, 68-0, coming in with a 2-1 record. Sophmore QB James Franklin out of Cornith, TX leads the tigers after the depature of first round draft pick Blaine Gabbert.

Franklin has a strong arm and can run if the option presents itself. EJ Manuel of FSU had flashes of success running against the Sooners and that was the only time the D broke down trying to stop the scrambling QB.

I can see Missouri looking to go with alot of read option to give Franklin a chance to showcase his skills. OU has plenty on the line in this game so they will be fired up for the start of conference play. I like OU 38-10.

Missouri is fucked. They'll be lucky to find the endzone 1 time in Norman, Oklahoma.

Oklahoma - 48
Missouri - 10

I'm disagreeing with everyone. It's gonna be a nail-biter...but I think OU wins 41-31.

Not a chance. Last year was an aberration. I've seen this movie before and it doesn't end well for missery.

That would be nice if Missouri wins but I just don't see it in Norman.

Oklahoma looks really legitimate this year. They played a good game against a really good FSU team on the road in a really hostile environment and won by two scores. Everyone knows how dominant OU is at home. OU will kill Mizzou in Norman.

Real good analysis. Final score should be about that.

There is .01% chance that Mizzou wins in Norman. It just can't happen and will not.

OU smokes the Tiggers. Mizzou had their run, it's back to reality for them.

OU is damn near invincible at home.

They score AT LEAST 40 on Mizzou.
