Featured Game | Oklahoma Sooners vs. Iowa State Cyclones
Why Oklahoma can cover
Losing back-to-back regular-season games is a rare occurrence for the Sooners as they are 41-1 following a setback since 1999, when they were defeated 38-28 by Texas after falling 34-30 at Notre Dame a week earlier. Oklahoma looks to put last week’s 27-14 loss at Baylor in the rearview mirror and get back in the win column behind its offense. The Sooners scored 35 or more points in five straight contests prior to the loss to the Bears, producing at least 52 three times in that span, and lead the Big 12 while ranking 17th in the nation with an average of 455.3 yards per game.
Freshman quarterback Caleb Williams has completed 82-of-117 pass attempts for 1,233 yards with 14 touchdowns and three interceptions in his last five games while also rushing for 244 yards and four scores, including three of 40 or more yards. In that same span, Kennedy Brooks has averaged 107.8 rushing yards while running for six TDs. The redshirt junior, who sat out the 2020 season due to coronavirus concerns, has found the end zone in 11 of his last 13 games dating back to 2019 and needs 143 yards to join De’Mond Parker (1996-98), Adrian Peterson (2004-06) and Samaje Perine (2014-16) as the only Sooners to record three 1,000-yard seasons.
Why Iowa State can cover
The Cyclones have averaged 36.5 points over their last eight games, scoring 30 or more six times in that span. They also have racked up 459.1 yards of total offense during that stretch and eclipsed 400 in all but one contest. Senior Brock Purdy recorded season highs of 32 completions and 356 yards last week, giving him 2,441 passing yards on the year — second-most in the conference.
Purdy was 32-of-42 (76.2 percent) against the Red Raiders, marking the nation-leading sixth time this season he has completed more than 75 percent of his pass attempts. Meanwhile, Breece Hall rushed for a pair of touchdowns in the loss to extend his streak to 22 consecutive games with at least one score on the ground. The junior has had a TD run in 24 of his last 25 games dating back to 2019 and is tied for fourth in the country with 16 this campaign.
