Texas vs Oklahoma: NCAAF Same Game Parlay | Pickswise

As one of the headline matchups on a loaded Week 7 slate and biggest rivalries in college Football, the Red River Rivalry takes center stage on Saturday afternoon from the Cotton Bowl in Dallas, Texas. This will be the first time the Longhorns and the Sooners meet as SEC foes, but the tradition of this matchup still remains in the heart of the State Fair of Texas.

I touched on my thoughts on the side in this matchup earlier this week in the opening line report, so I’m going to turn my attention to the prop market for a Same Game Parlay in Saturday’s Texas vs Oklahoma matchup.

Quinn Ewers (TEX) 2+ passing touchdowns (-155)

At this point of his college Football career, Quinn Ewers has seen it all. He may have missed a few weeks with an injury, but I don’t think that’s going to hamper his ability as a passer in this matchup. Oklahoma’s defense is much better against the run than it is the pass, and Ewers is the best quarterback the Sooners will have seen to this point of the season. He has thrown 2 touchdowns in every Game he has played to this point and still finds himself in the top 7 of the SEC with 8 passing touchdowns despite missing about 2 and a half Games. Opposite of Ewers and the Longhorn offense, Oklahoma will counter with a defense that was just gashed for 3 passing touchdowns by Auburn’s Payton Thorne prior to its bye. Since Week 2, the Sooners are outside the top 90 in opposing pass PPA and success rate, and only 1 of their pieces in the secondary is inside the top 40 in the SEC in PFF’s pass coverage. Look for Ewers to take advantage of that in what will likely be his final Game against the Sooners.

Isaiah Bond (TEX) over 62.5 receiving yards (-115)

As I highlighted above, Oklahoma’s pass defense leaves a bit to be desired. Two receivers have surpassed this total in each of Oklahoma’s SEC matchups to this point, and I believe Isaiah Bond is the most likely candidate to take the lid off the Sooner defense in this matchup with his elite speed. Oklahoma’s 3 top corners give up at least 11.4 yards per reception, and each of them has surrendered at least 1 30+ yard pass this season — so Bond should be able to get behind this bunch. He has big-Game experience from his time at Alabama last year and has surpassed this total in 3 straight Games.

Michael Hawkins Jr (OU) over 32.5 rushing yards (-115)

Oklahoma’s offensive line and wide receiver groups are hampered with injuries, so freshman quarterback Michael Hawkins Jr. is likely going to be asked to make plays with his legs. He is no stranger to this, as he has 26 carries and 91 combined rushing yards in his 2 starts this season. Texas’ defense has been solid against the run, but the Longhorns have yet to play a quarterback with Hawkins’ rushing upside. His ability to scramble should help him to evade some of the Texas pressure and gain chunks of yards with his legs.
