The Oklahoma Sooners and the Missouri Tigers will face each other for the second year in a row in the Big 12 Championship Game. Missouri will be looking for some revenge as Oklahoma scorched them 38-17 in last year's title match. The game kicks off at 8:00pm ET at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, MO. The Sooners are a heavily favored -16.5 at online bookmaker BetUS.com.
Many people expected Missouri to win the Big 12's North division, but few people envisioned the occasional sloppy play the Tigers exhibited in doing so. Still, Mizzou garnered a 9-3 record and a 5-3 conference mark. The Tigers only loss to a Big 12 North opponent occurred last week against the Kansas Jayhawks at Arrowhead Stadium.
Head Coach Gary Pinkel has guided his team to a second conference championship game largely due to the high powered nature of the Tigers offense. Quarterback Chase Daniel has led the scoring unit to a 45 point per game average.
The 11-1Oklahoma Sooners will make their third straight title game appearance thanks to a tie breaker that let the BCS rankings decide the Big 12 South division winner. The Sooners passed over the Texas Longhorns in the BCS rankings with their win over Oklahoma State last Saturday.
The Sooners have decimated opponents down the stretch, scoring over 60 points in their last four games and winning by an average of 34 points per game. On the season, Oklahoma is averaging 53.3 points per game and over 550 yards per game.
