On today's WUB Tailgate, T-Bob and Mintzy take a first look at this weekend's marquee matchups across college football. They begin in at the State Fair of Texas as for the 122nd Red River Rivalry between Oklahoma and No. 1 Texas. Can the Sooners shake off their slow start and upset the top-ranked Longhorns? Things stay in the SEC as No. 15 Tennessee hits the road to take on struggling Arkansas in a possible trap game. The guys then talk old Pac-10 (and 12) turned Big 10 rivals as UCLA and Oregon clash at Autzen Stadium in Eugene on Saturday. Kentucky is out to a flying start this season, fresh off a thrilling win at South Carolina last week. Can the Wildcats keep rolling and knock off No. 10 LSU in Lexington? Finally, the guys breakdown the Game of the Week in Tuscaloosa between No. 2 Georgia and No. 6 Alabama. The remnants of a Gulf tropical system look to throw a wrench into the game. But the story on the field is the battle between two Heisman Trophy hopefuls at quarterback: Keelan Russell and Gunner Stockton.

Texas-Oklahoma Preview and Ticket Saga1:53 – 6:30

T-Bob HebertHost

1:53

And, uh, unfortunately in terms of the quality of the game, uh, I, it, I don't see a world where Oklahoma's offense is gonna have any success against Collin Simmons, that incredible Texas defense.

T-Bob HebertHost

2:05

Like, like, Texas is a championship level team, not because of Arch Manning, not because of their offense, although those are good, and I like them more.

T-Bob HebertHost

2:14

I'm more bullish on them than it seems like maybe the general public is, but they're a championship level, level team because of that defense.

T-Bob HebertHost

2:20

Uh, Oklahoma also has a championship level defense potentially, but the offense is just a complete-

B

2:26

I mean

T-Bob HebertHost

2:27

... an utter disaster.

T-Bob HebertHost

2:28

I mean, Venables the other day saying like, "Yeah, you want me to tell you what we do well? We do nothing well offensively."

B

2:31

Scored 14 points against New Mexico.

T-Bob HebertHost

2:33

There's, there's nothing that we can hang our hat on.

B

2:34

Scored 14 against New Mexico.

T-Bob HebertHost

2:35

Yeah.

B

2:35

Beat New Mexico 14 to 6.

B

2:37

There's rumors they're gonna bench Mateer.

B

2:39

I don't think they will.

B

2:40

They're paying him too much money.

B

2:41

But yeah, it's bad.

B

2:43

But the thing about that game, and I, I do my weekly, my process is on Tuesday, I go, I spend an hour or two on DraftKings analyzing all the point spreads.

B

2:51

That's my process.

B

2:52

I get it going.

B

2:53

That one's interesting.

B

2:54

Texas was 10 and a half, now it's eight and a half.

B

2:57

Over under T-Bob's like 39.

T-Bob HebertHost

2:59

Yeah.

B
