Former Oklahoma Sooners head coach Bob Stoops isn't a big fan of picking the Tennessee Vols this season.
Two weeks ago, Stoops, who won a national championship at Oklahoma in 2000 with Josh Heupel as his quarterback, picked the Kentucky Wildcats to beat Tennessee.
Part of the reason Stoops picked the Wildcats was because his brother, Mark, is Kentucky's head coach.
The Vols beat Kentucky 33-27 in Lexington.
This week, Stoops is betting against Heupel and the Vols again.
On his YouTube channel, Stoops went with Missouri to beat Tennessee on Saturday.
"On the road matters to me in this one, Missouri's been hot," said Stoops. "They're having a heck of a year. I see a team like Missouri seeing Tennessee coming in at home, they're going to be ready for that. I think Missouri's going to keep it going. They will have had this game circled as well."
Stoops was wrong the last time he picked against the Vols on the road. We'll find out by Saturday evening if he's wrong again. Either way, it's clear that he's not a fan of picking Heupel, a man he fired as his offensive coordinator after the 2014 season, to win SEC games.
Update:
Things aren't looking good for the Vols in the fourth quarter against Mizzou. Maybe Big game Bob was right this time.
Update 2:
Good call, Bob.
