Oklahoma at Tulane Picks & Betting Tips


Oklahoma should make straightforward work of Tulane in their season opener.

The Sooners have a wealth of talent on offense and QB Spencer Rattler is poised for a breakout year.

Defensively they have a front seven that is hard to run on and will put plenty of pressure on the QB in the passing game.

This should be a routine win for Oklahoma and they are boosted further by the fact this game is now taking place in Norman.

  • Oklahoma are ranked #2 ahead of Week 1
  • Oklahoma are 7-1 against the spread in their last 8 games
  • Oklahoma offense averaged 43.0 points per game in 2020
  • Oklahoma offense averaged 494.7 yards per game in 2020
  • Oklahoma QB Spencer Rattler ranked #10 in total passing yards in 2020 (3,031)
  • Oklahoma QB Spencer Rattler ranked #8 in touchdown passes in 2020 (28)

Head To Head


  • Oklahoma lead the all-time series 1-0
  • Oklahoma won the only previous meeting 56-14 in 2017

Oklahoma Form


Oklahoma finished the 2020 regular season with a 9-2 record that earned them another Big 12 title.

The Sooners also dominated Florida in the Cotton Bowl, winning 55-20.

They missed out on the College Football Playoffs though and will be keen to ensure that does not happen again in 2021.

Spencer Rattler returns at QB after a freshman season that saw him throw for 3,031 yards and 28 touchdowns.

RB Kennedy Brooks returns after opting out in 2020. He has averaged 7.5 yards per carry and scored 18 TDs for the Sooners.

Defensively the Sooners are bringing back seven starters on an improving unit so they should be playoff contenders in 2021.

Tulane Form


Tulane finished the 2020 season with a 6-6 record, going 3-5 in their conference.

The Green Wave went 0-2 in meetings with ranked teams during that campaign, losing to SMU and Tulsa.

They were expecting to play their season opener at home but the game has been moved to Oklahoma due to Hurricane Ida.

And they have been forced to prepare for the matchup in Alabama due to the damage done around the campus.

The last time Tulane visited Norman they made a flying start to lead 14-7 late in the first quarter. They did not score another point though, losing 56-14.

Verdict

Oklahoma are the better team and now have the home advantage despite this officially being listed as a road game.

The Sooners should be too strong for a Tulane team who have lost homefield advantage and have seen their preparations disrupted by Hurricane Ida.
