Oklahoma football is coming off a devastating loss, while Oklahoma State is on a winning streak against two now ranked opponents. This is Bedlam at its best.

Oklahoma State Football is hosting the final Bedlam football matchup this weekend in Stillwater. Both teams are ranked in the top 25, with Oklahoma State coming in at No. 22 and Oklahoma at No. 9 in the first College Football Playoff rankings.

Oklahoma suffered their first loss of the season last week against unranked Kansas. The Sooners turned the ball over multiple times in the loss, which was uncharacteristic of the team. The game came down to the final minutes, in which Kansas pulled off the improbably upset.

Oklahoma State is coming into Bedlam with a four game winning streak. The start to their season was a disappointing one, with losses to South Alabama and Iowa State in consecutive week. Since then, the Cowboys have found their offensive footing and weapon in running back Ollie Gordon II.

As the final Bedlam football game is set to take place, let’s look at some bold predictions for the game.
