Iowa State @ Oklahoma Sooners

Both Iowa St. and Oklahoma are fresh off conference losses, with the Cyclones falling to Nebraska and the Sooners dropping the Red River Shootout to rival Texas. That said, Oklahoma clearly has the more talented team here, especially with Adrian Peterson around. Peterson ran for 109 yards and a TD against the Longhorns, and he should run wild against Iowa State. OU wins this one by at least 10.

I am picking Oklahoma in this one.

Sooners 34
Cyclones 24

Seems like a sound pick to me. Peterson is the X-factor here. I mean, really good teams can slow him down or find a way to win even when he has a big game. But Iowa state defensively can't hope to shut the Heisman candidate down. Peterson more or less carries OU to the win in this one.

Anyone out there like the Cyclones chances of pulling the upset? Anyone?
