→Player to watch: Chase Coffman, TE, Mizzou.
Coffman has more career receptions (236) than any tight end in FBS history. An All-American, he’s the preferred target for Mizzou QB Chase Daniel. OU’s decision to play linebacker Mike Balogun or adjust with an extra DB comes down to how they handle Coffman.

→Who’s hot: Kevin Wilson, offensive coordinator, OU.
How swell is it to be OU’s offensive coordinator? A Heisman Trophy contender and 4,000-yard passer, along with two 1,000-yard backs. Playmakers galore and a veteran offensive line. As Wilson said this week, "Pretty good gig.” Should lead to another pretty good gig — as somebody’s next head coach.

→"Oklahoma 38, Missouri 17: Rip the top off the Alamo Dome, throw in some snow flurries and put some pressure on Chase Daniel.
