(#22)Missouri at (#8)Oklahoma
Noon, ABC

The Sooners are coming off an emotional, gritty win at Alabama. Now they have to follow it up by facing a physical and dangerous Mizzou squad. Things could get interesting in Norman as Oklahoma looks to remain in the hunt for the SEC crown and playoff berth. This game could also mark the return of Beau Pribula, who has been out since injuring his leg on a failed fourth-and-goal run against Vanderbilt in late October.
Prediction: Oklahoma-21, Missouri-16

Louisville at SMU
Noon, ESPN2

The Mustangs face a stern test in their quest for a repeat appearance in the ACC Championship Game. The Cardinals were once a prime candidate in the ACC, but back-to-back losses to Cal and Clemson have sunk their chances. They will need to quickly regain their mojo to take down SMU on the road and help salvage their season.
Prediction: SMU-28, Louisville-23

(#15)USC at (#7)Oregon
3:30, CBS

A battle between old PAC-12 rivals is renewed in what is turning out to be the highlight of a mostly tepid week 13 slate. The Trojans are finally showing up in the trenches under Lincoln Riley after several seasons of dropping games to any team that posed a challenge on the lines of scrimmage. The Ducks are the more talented team, but will need to overcome several key injuries to get the ‘W’ at home. This should be a four-quarter battle, with the team that escapes with a victory feeling much better about their playoff hopes.
Prediction: Oregon-30, USC-27

Arkansas at (#17)Texas
3:30 p.m., ABC

The poor Razorbacks stand at only 2-8, but are a few bounces from being bowl eligible. It seems like their luck has to change at some point, right? If so, this seems to be the week for it. Texas is in a classic trap game a week after an embarrassing loss to Georgia and a week ahead of a key match-up their hated rival, #3 Texas A&M.
Prediction: Arkansas-28, Texas-27

(#11)BYU at Cincinnati
8 p.m., FOX

BYU is one of the teams that can throw the playoff picture into complete chaos when the bracket is announced in a couple weeks. This will be a crucial road test against a team with a dangerous offense that has slipped up the last two games after a hot start to the season.
Prediction: Cincinnati-37, BYU-34
