The Oklahoma Sooners have two more favorable matchups left in the regular season to survive and keep their spot in the College Football Playoff, starting with the wannabe rivals Missouri Tigers.
The Sooners will host Missouri on Saturday before an afternoon matchup against the LSU Tigers next week for their regular-season finale that will also be at Gaylord Family-Oklahoma Memorial Stadium. OU returns to Norman after notching a pair of top-15 road upsets at Tennessee and Alabama that propelled the Sooners right in the middle of the CFP picture. Simply, if the Sooners avoid an upset the next two weeks, they're in the College Football Playoff for the first time under Brent Venables and as SEC members.
