00:00 the Red River Rivalry. As we
00:05 wake up on this Saturday
00:06 morning into our second segment
00:08 live right here on CFT. Just a
00:10 four and a half point favorite.
00:12 It's where the line was earlier
00:13 this week and it ballooned to
00:15 six and a half. Near a
00:16 touchdown in favor of UT. Now,
00:18 back down, Joe to only four and
00:20 a half points. What's your key
00:22 matchup to follow that will
00:23 decide the outcome of the Red
00:25 River Rivalry? Well, for me,
00:26 it's the rushing attack because
00:27 you saw Texas last week
00:28 last week, they were rushing
00:30 over three and a half. They
00:31 rushed for over 300 yards, well
00:33 over six yards per carry and
00:35 this year, Oklahoma much
00:36 improved in terms of the front
00:38 seven only giving up 105
00:39 rushing yards per game, 3.1
00:41 yards per carry compared to
00:44 last year, Ben, where they
00:45 allowed 188 rushing yards per
00:47 game. It was one of the worst
00:48 rush defenses in the history of
00:51 Oklahoma, you know, history.
00:52 You have to go back to the mid
00:53 90s with John Blake in terms of
00:55 the head coach. So, if they
00:57 win this game against Texas,
00:58 it's going to be lights out.
00:59 Texas will win most likely by
01:02 double digits that'll give
01:04 Quinn yours can have the
01:04 ability to work off a play
01:06 action, hit Xavier Worthy, hit
01:08 Winnington, and those big play
01:10 wide receivers and then I think
01:11 you know, Oklahoma will just be
01:13 playing catch up in terms of
01:14 that matchup. So, it really
01:15 comes down to the defensive
01:17 front for Oklahoma going up
01:19 against the offensive line of
01:20 Texas today. So, this is a
01:22 really interesting spot for me
01:24 because I was one of few
01:25 receivers. Yeah. Well, they
01:26 would make the college football
01:28 playoff and yet even I see this
01:30 line. Let's hold on a second
01:32 now. I didn't think that we
01:33 would get to this football game
01:34 and at any have any chance of
01:35 being under a touchdown and if
01:37 you told me that Texas beat
01:38 Alabama, it had to be double
01:40 digits. Right. So, it shows how
01:42 much respect Oklahoma has
01:44 started to earn in the
01:45 marketplace. As someone holding
01:47 a Dylan Gabriel Heisman ticket,
01:50 we root it on. We hope he has a
01:51 great game today but for me,
01:53 the big bet that I have in the
01:55 Big 12 is you kind of the exact
01:57 Oklahoma to beat Texas or Texas
01:58 to beat Oklahoma in the Big 12
01:59 Championship game. So, this is
02:01 one of those spots where the
02:02 winner, you can basically write
02:04 their ticket into that game
02:05 right now. The loser is going
02:06 to have to bounce back but we
02:08 saw it last night. K State was
02:10 supposed to be the other team in
02:11 the mix and look, we can, you
02:13 know, those are the odds before
02:14 last night's, you know, game
02:15 was right with Kansas State.
02:17 They lose Oklahoma State as a
02:19 double digit favorite, mind you.
02:21 I fully expect this to be a Big
02:22 12 Championship game preview.
