Brent Venables is no stranger to these matchups. Win, and the monkey is off your back. For now. Lose, and the seat immediately warms up. The Sooners are favored, but they're on the road. They have the defense, but they lack the run game. How much healthier will John Mateer be this week? And who do the Sooners lean on at the running back position? And where are we with the amount of blame that should be placed on the offensive line? And the Sooners have offered a Penn State commit that could help bolster the receiving corps. It's a key week and a key edition of the Unofficial 40.
