Oklahoma Sooners QB Landry Jones is coming off a sizzling performance against the Kansas State Wildcats<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Texas A&M will be seeking consecutive wins over the Oklahoma Sooners and will be looking to bounce back from a disappointing 38-31 overtime defeat against the Missouri Tigers as 10.5-point home favorites.\u00a0 The Aggies won last year\u2019s meeting as 4.5-point home underdogs, while the contest stayed under the posted total of 62.5.\u00a0 The locker room may have a difficult time in rebounding off last Saturday\u2019s loss though.\u00a0 \u201cVery devastating,\u201d commented Aggies linebacker Sean Porter.\u00a0 \u201cWe\u2019re a team that had high expectations.\u00a0 This is bad.\u00a0 Not what we expected at all.\u201d\u00a0 Texas A&M is 0-2 ATS on the road this season, while the \u2018over\u2019 is 8-2 in that situation the last two-plus seasons.<\/p>\n

The Aggies have lost six consecutive games in this series when playing in Norman, with the last win coming in 1997.\u00a0 Texas A&M has won both of its true road games this season, bringing in a five-game win streak in such tilts that dates back to 2010.\u00a0 Running backs Christine Michael and Cyrus Gray lead the offense, as they are on pace to become the 53rd set of teammates to gain over 1,000 yards rushing in NCAA FBS history.\u00a0 The Aggies are one of just three teams that rank in the top 25 in rushing, passing, total and scoring offense.<\/p>\n

Oklahoma showed some resiliency in capturing a 58-17 win over the Kansas State Wildcats last week, which directly followed a 41-38 loss to the Texas Tech Red Raiders.\u00a0 \u201cIt felt differently before the game,\u201d commented quarterback Landry Jones.\u00a0 \u201cI think we were more focused, more ready to play.\u201d\u00a0 He certainly responded in completing 35-of-47 passes for a school-record 505 yards and five touchdowns.\u00a0 Oklahoma is 6-4 ATS as a favorite of 10.5 to 21 points the last two-plus seasons, while the \u2018over\u2019 is 30-15 in that particular situation.<\/p>\n

The Sooners rolled up 690 yards last week and wide receiver Ryan Broyles finished with 14 catches for 171 yards and a touchdown.\u00a0 Oklahoma\u2019s defense also regained some of its confidence that may have been lost the previous week, limiting Kansas State to just 240 yards, including 32 in the second half.\u00a0 The unit chalked up seven sacks, while its offensive line didn\u2019t allow a sack for a third straight game.<\/p>\n

Bettors will likely back the Sooners due to the home team being 11-2 ATS in the last 13 meetings, while the Aggies are 1-5 ATS following a straight-up loss.<\/p>\n
