Oklahoma vs. Temple live stream, where to watch, TV channel, odds, spread, prediction, pick

Oklahoma opens its |A| first season as a |B| member of the SEC |C| when it plays host |D| to Temple in a |E| Friday night matchup in |F| Norman, Oklahoma. The Sooners |G| posted their first 10-win |H| season under Brent Venables |J| last season, but failed |K| to reach the Big |L| 12 title game due |M| to tiebreakers. The Sooners |O| enter Year 3 of |P| the Venables era ranked |Q| No. 16 and a |R| dark-horse candidate for the |S| College Football Playoff. 

Temple |U| is coming off its |V| third straight 3-9 campaign |Y| and has just 10 |Z| total wins since 2020. |A| The Owls were soundly |B| picked last place in |C| the AAC poll and |D| are No. 129 out |E| of 134 teams in |F| the preseason CBS Sports |G| Rankings. 

The Owls technically |H| have an active winning |J| streak against the vaunted |K| Sooners... in 1941. Temple |L| beat Oklahoma 14-7 behind |M| a daring pick-six from |O| Owls legend James Woodside. |P| Oklahoma won 9-6 when |Q| these two teams played |R| in 1940. Needless to |S| say, the Sooners have |U| a few more advantages |V| heading into this matchup |Y| 82 years later as |Z| a Southeastern Conference opponent.

New |J| generation enters: The Sooners |K| lost several top contributors |L| on offense from the |M| 2023 season including quarterback |O| Dillon Gabriel, top receiver |P| Drake Stoops and all |Q| five offensive linemen. However, |R| much of the transition |S| was by design as |U| Oklahoma embraces a slew |V| of top offensive recruits |Y| from the Brent Venables |Z| era. Quarterback Jackson Arnold |A| is a former top-10 |B| national prospect and receiver |C| Nic Anderson is a |D| rising star. The defense |E| still has plenty of |F| returning star power to |G| bolster the rising stars, |H| including linebacker Danny Stutsman |J| and safety Billy Bowman. 

|K| dir="ltr">Temples hopes are slim: |L| Finding optimism at Temple |M| isnt easy. The Owls |O| had an intriguing young |P| quarterback in E.J. Warner, |Q| but he transferred to |R| Rice. Their top rusher |S| and top two receivers |U| are gone too. The |V| defense ranked bottom 10 |Y| nationally and gave up |Z| 6.3 yards per play. |A| Temple coach Stan Drayton |B| hit the portal to |C| try and fix both |D| units, but finding even |E| all-conference candidates is difficult. 

|F| dir="ltr">New play-callers: The Sooners |G| are replacing coordinators on |H| both sides of the |J| ball after losing both |K| after the 2023 season. |L| Brent Venables opted to |M| move on from Ted |O| Roof and brought in |P| Zac Alley, a young |Q| up-and-comer who worked for |R| him as a graduate |S| assistant at Clemson. Former |U| North Texas coach Seth |V| Littrell takes over as |Y| offense coordinator after Jeff |Z| Lebby left to take |A| over the Mississippi State |B| program. Venables staff is |C| filled with former Bob |D| Stoops and Dabo Swinney |E| staffers; he hopes to |F| find a balance of |G| the two heading into |H| the SEC. 

Oklahoma vs. |J| Temple prediction, picks

Oklahoma |K| enters its first game |L| as an SEC member |M| ranked top 20 in |O| the country and with |P| plenty to prove behind |Q| a first-year quarterback. Without |R| question, the Sooners will |S| leave zero meat on |U| the bone against a |V| wildly overmatched Temple team. |Y| Expect deep shots early |Z| and often as Oklahoma |A| tries to build some |B| confidence and swagger under |C| first-year coordinators. Pick: Oklahoma |D| -42.5
