The dog days of Oklahoma’s first SEC season have not been exhausted, but Saturday does provide a rare opportunity as the Sooners enter the game a slight favorite over the Missouri Tigers, who were ranked as high as No.

The Oklahoma Sooners' next game this weekend against the Missouri Tigers just became the biggest game of the Brent Venables era. I know, it seems crazy to say that, but this team needs a win to make going to a bowl game realistic,
