Oklahoma (5-4) host Texas A&M (5-4) tonight in Norman with both teams seeking bowl eligibility, the Sooners unranked for the first time since December 2005 hope to avoid a disastrous 5-5 record. Oklahoma's season has been plagued with injuries, losing All-Americans Jermaine Gresham and Sam Bradford, worsened this week with loss of Brody Eldridge (shoulder), Jarvis Jones (heel) and Auston English (foot) for the season. That puts a total of five starters out for the season.

The bright spot, if there was one, is the emergence of Landry Jones and other young talent on offense. However, last weekend for the first time in more than a decade the Oklahoma offense failed to score a touchdown in a 10-3 loss to Nebraska. Jones, who threw five interceptions in the game, and the offensive unit, hounded by penalties and missed opportunities, took a step backwards.

The Aggies coming off a 34-35 loss to Colorado last weekend, haven't beat the Sooners since 2002, hope to turn around a lopsided Oklahoma series in their favor. If the Aggies have any chance against the Sooners, A&M hopes their defense pressures Landry Jones into mistakes. A&M hopes Von Miller, who leads the nation in sacks, has a huge game.

Now with all that said.... If the Sooners win tonight, Oklahoma could still finish second in Big 12 south. However, an Oklahoma loss will put them ahead of only Baylor in the Big 12 South.

No. 22 Oklahoma Sooners (4-3) host unranked Kansas State Wildcats (5-3) at 6:00 p.m. in a Halloween night matchup. The Sooners celebrate homecoming tonight, Oklahoma QB Landry Jones hopes to celebrate an OU win to kickoff the official beginning of the Jones-era. This past week QB Sam Bradford, 2008 Heisman Trophy winner and Oklahoma's leading all-time passer, underwent season-ending shoulder surgery and announced he'll fore-go his senior year and enter the 2010 NFL draft. Only one of Oklahoma's losses has been with Jones as starter at quarterback.

The Sooners are coming off a 35-13 victory against Big 12 North contender Kansas last weekend. The Oklahoma defense held Kansas the then-No. 2 offense in the nation 200 yards below their season average. Jones, threw for 251 yards and two touchdowns.

Last weekend, Kansas State coasted to a 20-6 victory over Colorado. The Wildcats' running back Daniel Thompson produced half of KSU's 284 total yards of offense, Thompson rushed for 145 yards and 18 yards receiving. With the win over Colorado, Kansas State became the Big 12 North leader.

With an Oklahoma win tonight, the Sooners are still in Big 12 south title contention if they win out. However, Sooners need Oklahoma State to defeat Texas tonight, and defeat is an understatement. The Cowboys must win big.
