NORMAN, Okla. -- The weather for tonight's Nebraska-Oklahoma game couldn't be much nicer. As we drove to the stadium this afternoon, the temperature was about 85 degrees with barely a breath of wind.

The Cornhuskers obviously face a tall order as 22-point underdogs against the No. 4-ranked Sooners. Oklahoma is 58-2 at home in Bob Stoops' 10 years as head coach, making things even more difficult for Nebraska in a night game at Gaylord Family-Oklahoma Memorial Stadium.

OU has be prone to giving up big plays in recent weeks, but the Sam Bradford-led Sooner offense has also be virtually unstoppable. Nebraska will likely try to keep things close by continuing its ball-control style of offense. Will it be enough for the Huskers to still be hanging around in the fourth quarter?

The picks:

Terry Douglass, sports editor: Oklahoma 45, Nebraska 27
Bob Hamar, assistant sports editor: Oklahoma 35, Nebraska 21
Tony Boone, sports writer: Oklahoma 45, Nebraska 24
