The day of the final Bedlam is here. For the last time for the foreseeable future, Oklahoma State will take on Oklahoma. The Cowboys host the Sooners in Stillwater at 2:30 p.m. CT and the game will be broadcast on ABC.

There's plenty to be desired about winning the last game of a historical battle. On top of that, there are Big 12 implications on the line. These teams are tied for top in the conference, among other teams. The winner of this game essentially puts themselves in the driver's seat to make the conference championship game.

With all of the storylines surrounding this matchup, it's bound to be a classic game. 

Here is how ESPN's College Gameday crew selected the matchup to go:

Desmond Howard: Oklahoma

Pat McAfee: Oklahoma State

Nate Bargatze: Oklahoma State

Lee Corso: Oklahoma State

Kirk Herbstreit: Oklahoma


Desmond Howard's pick comes from his confidence in the Sooners' ability to play strong run defense, shutting down Ollie Gordon and forcing the ball into Alan Bowman's hands.

Pat McAfee, though, had the opposite belief. He thinks the Cowboys, behind a huge game from Gordon, will be able to take down the Sooners in the last edition of Bedlam. McAfee also raved over Gordon earlier in the show.
