Today we preview Week Seven.

Game of the Week: No. 11 Texas 31 (5-1) @ No. 3 Oklahoma 37 (6-0)

Again, the Red River Shootout lives up to its billing, with serious Big 12 and national-title implications. Both teams enter the game undefeated, eyeing a BCS bid. Sam Bradford, DeMarco Murray and the Sooners prevail by less than a touchdown, winning 80.3 percent of the time and by an average score of 37-31.
