Forcasting An Upset





I know this is kind of a off the wall prediction, but now a days no upset is to wild to imagine. From what I have seen this 2007 season of college football this prediction is a pretty logical unexplainable upset. After I saw Stanford beat USC last week I will believe almost anything right now. Maybe I want Oklahoma to lose to Missouri because they beat my Texas. Oklahoma was beat two weeks ago by unranked Colorado while Missouri is undefeated and recently destroyed Nebraska (41-6). Missouri is the best they ever been even though their history with Oklahoma hasn't been pretty losing 16 straight games to them.

Both these teams have great QBs on their sides in Sam Bradford for Oklahoma and Chase Daniel for the Tigers. Missouri won't have starting running back Tony Temple who is out due to sprained ankle. So due to that Oklahoma will mostly own rushing part of the game with DeMarco Murray. The passing game is just about even to me while on paper Missouri has about 100 yards better pass yard average per game. But Oklahoma's receivers have a better receiving average per completion over Missouri's receivers. In conclusion I believe this game will rely on the defences of these two teams. Also I believe anytime can happen this game so I'm calling the upset here and now.
