BYU vs Oklahoma College Football Picks Week 1: Preseason No. 20 Brigham Young Cougars at the No. 3 Oklahoma Sooners in an exciting early matchup of ranked opponents. The College Football Picks experts at Sportsbook.com have the Oklahoma Sooners -22 point favorites against the BYU Cougars.
Depending on who you talk to among College Football Picks experts, four Oklahoma players who opted to stay in school could have been first round draft picks. Quarterback Sam Bradford may have been the first overall selection and defensive tackle Gerald McCoy, offensive tackle Trent Williams and tight end Jermaine Gresham would not have been too far behind. Instead, they are all back in Norman and ready to make yet another run at a national championship. Watch out BYU, you’ll have to score in bunches to keep up with this offense.
Despite the on-field issues, which will likely not be issues at all since Oklahoma will reload quite quickly, the real problem could be the team’s mindset. The Sooners have lost some big games over the last few years, including last year’s national championship. Can this team win the big game? The answer is probably yes, but is this the group that can win it all and put that stigma behind them? The College Football picks experts at sportsbook.com have the Oklahoma Sooners vs BYU Cougars Total set at 66 points.
However, Max Hall is still a great quarterback and Harvey Unga is still a superb running back no matter how good, or bad, the line is this season. Hall threw for nearly 4,000 yards during his junior campaign and his senior season could be even better if Collie can be replaced. Unga is the workhorse on the ground and carried the ball 240 times for 1,132 yards and 11 touchdowns. He even caught 42 passes, four which resulted in touchdowns. With those two leading the way, the offense will still be dynamic and the Cougars will be in the mix for a Mountain West Conference title.
