Bradford May Play Saturday Sportbooks Online. Sportbooks online are watching the game between Oklahoma and Miami closely this Saturday because Heisman Trophy winner Sam Bradford might make his return for the Sooners. Oklahoma is a 7-point college football betting favorite at the offshore sportsbook, in part because oddsmakers expect him to play.
Sportbooks online have Oklahoma as a solid favorite against Miami. The Sooners are one of the top teams in the country and well respected at the offshore sportsbook and Bradford is a big reason why. Head coach Bob Stoops has not officially said that Bradford will start this week with the sportbooks online but the signs are encouraging. “He has picked up his number of throws, the distance and his velocity each day,” Stoops said. “He’s been better every day.”
Bradford has been sharing snaps this week, as told by sportbooks online, with backup Landry Jones. Stoops is keeping things a bit quite but all signs are pointing to Bradford being ready. “It’s still too early in the week to tell,” Stoops said. “These next two days are important.” Jones was very good against Tulsa in the Sooners’ huge win in sportbooks online action but he is not Bradford.
Oklahoma is a national title contender in college football betting with Bradford and they may need him to beat Miami in sportbooks online results. “It will be determined on how we go through the week, on how he performs, on how he feels,” Stoops said. “To make sure he can make all the throws we need him to make. Until we go through practices, I won’t know that.”
The key for Bradford is how well his shoulder feels after throwing in practice. “He seemed to feel fine,” Stoops said. “But we’ll see once he gets some ice on it, how it feels tomorrow probably matters. It’s a gradual build up to the number of throws and how you throw it as you go through the week.”
The Sooners are still considered a serious sports betting contender for the national title at the offshore sportsbook. They would need to win this game at Miami for the sportbooks online and then they would need to beat Texas. That would get them into the Top three or four and then a win in the Big 12 title game might be enough to get them into the national championship game where they would probably be underdogs at the offshore sportsbook since they can’t win a BCS game.
