Quite looking forward to seeing what happens in this one, actually. The Sooners D has been solid all year, and their offense should be able to rack up some yards & points against a not quite average Cardinal defense. The Cardinal's have Toby Gerhart though along with some big wins - walloping Oregon and USC were better than anything the Sooners have done this year. Could Stanford pull it off? Certainly. But I think Oklahoma will show some poise and their bowl experience will help them hang on.
The Line: Stanford +9.5
The Call: Oklahoma wins, but Stanford covers the spread
The Result: Oklahoma 31-27
Good all around game. Entertaining, both teams played well on both sides of the ball, etc. Finally the Sooners get another bowl win. It's not the BCS, but it's a good boost for the next year. Stanford should be set for a solid year as well - even though they're losing some players, they have some young ones too that should make things interesting in the Pac10 again.
