Bowl PIckoff - 1/2

Frazier: Oklahoma -7 over WVU
Is that really the line? That's an enticing number even WITH Coach Rod. Without him, and with the added turmoil in Morgantown, I just have to lay the points. With as good as Mizzou looked against Arkansas, one has to believe that Oklahoma is a lot better than I had thought. I had them pegged as entirely overrated all season, but the Big 12 has generally looked good in their bowl games, and Oklahoma is clearly the cream of that crop. Unless Pat White plays superman, it won't be close. Call it Sooners, 41-28.

Maybe, just maybe one of these days we'll get a BCS bowl matchup that doesn't suck.....then again maybe we won't. Two blowouts down, three to come. Tonight, it should be all Oklahoma all the time. Simply put, WVU is too small, too weak, too distracted, and too timid to stand up to an Oklahoma team that can bully opponents when they want to. The only thing that can save the Mountaineers is a lack of motivation on the part of the Sooners. Don't count on it as the Sooners can stake a claim to the top 5 in 2008 with a dominant performance. Call it 38-20.
