Analysis:

Free Play from Doc’s Sports. Take #233 Oklahoma Sooners -3 over Navy Midshipmen (12p.m., Friday, December 27 ESPN) ARMED FORCES BOWL This is an important game for Oklahoma and their embattled coach and they do not want to get embarrassed in this bowl game against a mid- major program. Navy won their Super Bowl against Army two weeks ago and I do not believe that they will have much left in the tank for this game (similar to Army winning the AAC before playing Navy). I always like when team have weeks to prepare to stop the option and the Sooners are coached by a former defensive coordinator. Lay the points with the better team from the better conference. Do not miss out on Doc’s Sports weekend card featuring plays in football, basketball, and hockey.
