Oklahoma vs. Oklahoma State odds, spread, lines: Week 12 Bedlam college football picks, predictions by computer model

Picks and predictions for Bedlam as Oklahoma and Oklahoma State square off on the Week 12 college football schedule

Bedlam is back, even if both teams are on the downswing this season, as Oklahoma welcomes rival Oklahoma State in college football's Week 12 action on Saturday.

Oklahoma is coming off two straight losses and is 5-5 overall in Brent Venables' debut season, already with a 49-0 loss to Texas on the books and hoping to make a more positive statement against the Sooners' in-state rival.

Once upon a time, the Cowboys were 6-1 with just a three-point loss at TCU their only blemish, but two costly losses, a 48-0 drubbing at Kansas State and a 37-16 decision at Kansas, dropped the Pokes to 7-3, but still hanging around the Big 12 title hunt at this crucial point in the season.

What do the experts think of the matchup? Let's see how the College Football Power Index computer prediction model projects the game.
