The college gameday crew has made their picks for the Tennessee vs Oklahoma game.
The Tennessee vs Oklahoma game is the biggest of the weekend and college gameday is on site for the conference matchup. This is the Oklahoma Sooners' first SEC football game since joining the conference and this is head coach Josh Heupel's first return to Norman, Oklahoma since he was a coach for the program. This game has everything and the college gameday crew has made their predictions for the game.

- Desmond Howard: I'm going with Tennessee to win.
