Oklahoma-Florida State Cheez-It Bowl Odds, Lines, Spread and Betting Preview
A hugely disappointing Oklahoma season has turned into a December exodus. The Sooners have lost both starting offensive tackles, their 1,300-yard rusher and their No. 2 defensive player in tackles for loss to draft prep. Plus a receiver to the portal. Brent Venables is plugging a lot of holes during bowl practices.
For now, the news out of Tallahassee is less chaotic. The Seminoles have won their last five games, scoring 38 or more points in all of them, and quarterback Jordan Travis could be eyeing a big outing against a vulnerable Sooners defense. Florida State had a better season, finished better, has more roster stability coming into this game and is playing a semi-home game in Orlando.
