Re: Talk me down on this one: College Football
OU is starting 3 freshmen (2 true and 1 reshshirt) on the offensive line. This will be their first start on the road, and UCLA is crazy not to put at least 9 in the box to stop Peterson. I'm not crazy about UCLA's defense either, but I've got to think the under is the smart play here.
To me it looks like Oklahoma is playing their early seson non-conference games as "pre-season" for their Big 12 Schedule, getting some playing time for their freshmen and sophmores. At this point it's hard to predict how they're going to react to their first test on the road, but the early returns from their home games aren't promising.
