The Bears only allowed the Jayhawks to score in the second half, with most of the Bears\u2019 starters already resting on the sidelines and the game practically out of Kansas\u2019 reach.<\/p>\n<p>Behind Petty\u2019s brilliance, the Bears finished that game with 743 total yards, the second straight time the Bears have had at least 700. Prior to the Kansas game, the Bears tallied 714 total yards in their 71-7 destruction of Iowa State in Week 6.<\/p>\n<p>Petty has been solid for Baylor so far this season. He is widely discussed as being the Big 12\u2019s best QB, responsible for leading the Bears\u2019 FBS best passing yards per game (417.3) and points per game (63.9).<\/p>\n<p>Aside from being 7-0 SU, Baylor is also 6-1 ATS this season. Carried by their high-octane offense, the Totals for the Bears have gone Over in six of their seven games.<b>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Bet now on the <a href=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/sportsbook\/college-football\/ncaa\">Baylor Bears<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Betting on the Oklahoma Sooners:<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/Blake-Bell-Oklahoma-Sooners-NCAA-Football.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9461\" alt=\"Blake Bell, Oklahoma Sooners, NCAA Football\" src=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/Blake-Bell-Oklahoma-Sooners-NCAA-Football.jpg\" width=\"594\" height=\"383\" srcset=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/Blake-Bell-Oklahoma-Sooners-NCAA-Football.jpg 594w, http:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/Blake-Bell-Oklahoma-Sooners-NCAA-Football-300x193.jpg 300w, http:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/Blake-Bell-Oklahoma-Sooners-NCAA-Football-138x90.jpg 138w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 594px) 100vw, 594px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Sooners passed a tough test against Texas Tech and another opportunity to beat a Top 10 squad will come when they face No. 6 Baylor. It figures to be another huge challenge for the Sooners\u2019 defense as the Bears are ranked best in the nation in passing yards and scoring.<\/p>\n<p>The Sooners managed to shave some points off the Red Raiders offense, which averages nearly 40 PPG, in their compelling 38-30 win last October 26. The Sooners allowed a total of 460 yards but only 72 of those were on the ground.<\/p>\n[sc:NCAA490banner ]\n<p>Against Baylor\u2019s offense that averages around 300 rushing yards per game, the pressure will mount for OU, given that the Sooners can\u2019t go toe-to-toe offensively with the Bears intimidating air and ground assault.<\/p>\n<p>Without a doubt, the game against Baylor will be the litmus test for Oklahoma\u2019s defense that underwent a serious overhaul during the offseason.<\/p>\n<p>An encouraging statistic for the Sooners: Baylor hasn\u2019t won a game in their last 10 trips to Waco.
