The Oklahoma Sooners and Oklahoma State Cowboys are playing live on the college football schedule on Saturday night and the Big 12 conference game starts up at 8 pm ET on ABC from Boone Pickens Stadium in Stillwater. The game is streaming live on the WatchESPN website and Oklahoma should have Baker Mayfield and Samaje Perine playing in the matchup.
Mayfield had to leave the game last week for Oklahoma with a head injury and he was able to practice this week leading into the weekend. Mayfield has put up some strong numbers this season and having him back under center will be big for Oklahoma. Perine was able to practice after dealing with an ankle injury last week, while Joe Mixon is also expected to play.
