Point Train's CFB Best Bet Saturday, October 128-Unit-#111 Oklahoma (-13.5) over Texas– 11:00 AM CST
The last two quarterbacks to face the Sooners — Notre Dame’s Tommy Rees and TCU’s Trevone Boykin — completed only 50 percent of their passes and averaged just 135 yards per game. Texas’ starting QB David Ash is out with an injury so Case McCoy will again get the start under center. McCoy has completed nearly 61% of his passes this season with 2 TD and 0 INT. But the offense has been rather stagnant with McCoy at the helm. He’s averaging just 5.6 yards per attempt (compared to 8.7 YPA for David Ash) and the big-play potential severely decreases. Meanwhile, Texas’ defense has been horrendous. The Longhorns have surrendered 30+ points in three of the last four games and they rank 110thin yards allowed. Oklahoma hasn’t been as explosive on offense this season as they have in year’s past, but the Sooners are gaining steam behind QB Bell. Bell has 6 TD and 0 INT in three starts this season. He’ll have a big day against this porous Texas defense. OU has won and covered the last three meetings winning by an average margin of 29 PPG. OU had a +388 yard advantage and +17 first downs in last year’s game and QB Bell had four rushing touchdowns.

5* Non-Conference Game of the Year on Mississippi State -pts
The Bulldogs play extremely well in front of their home crowd. In fact, they are 5-1 ATS in their last six home games against a team with a winning record. They have several key matchup advantages in this game against Bowling Green. On offense Mississippi State has scored 32.4 points per game overall, and 46.3 points per game when playing at home. They have put up big numbers against a much stronger schedule than what the Falcons have faced this season.
Bowling Green's only game against a quality opponent was their matchup with Indiana. The Falcons ended up getting crushed in a 32 point blowout. There defense has been soft against the run, allowing 4.8 yards per carry. When playing on the road it gets even worse as opponents average 5.3 yards per carry and 202 rushing yards per game. Mississippi State is a great running team that averages 4.9 yards per carry and 208 rushing yards per game. They should have no problem dominating this matchup similar to the way Indiana was able to control their game against the Falcons.
Head coach Dan Mullen has a 12-4 ATS record has a home favorite as the coach of Mississippi State. I expect him to have his defense well prepared after having a poor showing against LSU last week. The Bulldogs are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games after allowing more than 280 yards passing in their previous game. Typically the Mississippi State secondary has played well this season, holding opponents to to just 205 passing yards per game. The Falcon's offensive numbers are drastically inflated thanks to a soft schedule, and the value in this game is on Mississippi State.

OKLAHOMA (111) AT TEXAS (112)
Latest Line: Texas +14.0; Total: 58.0
The Red River Rivalry resumes in Dallas, and these programs seem to be heading in different directions. Oklahoma has won and covered against Texas each of the past three years, including a 63-21 blowout last year and 55-17 domination two years ago. Texas QB David Ash (concussion) will sit again, giving Case McCoy another start (1-1 SU, 0-2 ATS as starter, 5.63 YPA on the season). Oklahoma won ugly at home against TCU last week, rushing for 203 yards but going just 3-for-13 on third downs.
