Questions galore for OU and Missouri as the former Big 8\/Big 12 rivals reunite in the SEC on Saturday night.<\/p>\n

Between uneven play for both teams and a rash of injuries, it\u2019s going to be a very interesting weekend in Columbia. It is OU\u2019s first trip to Mizzou since 2010.<\/p>\n

A lot to play for, let\u2019s get to it. Time for the Unofficial 40 podcast from SoonerScoop as OU looks to get magic win No. 6 and earn the right to go bowling.<\/p>\n

\n<\/span>\n<\/div>\n

Just how big is this?<\/h2>\n

After all the changes OU has made, it has felt like a different team in the last couple of weeks. But now, can it look like a good team?<\/p>\n

Head coach Brent Venables<\/a> wasn\u2019t afraid to make the move that had to be made. The team has responded in a huge way. As Venables loves to say, now he wants to see them rewarded for their hard work.<\/p>\n

Quarterback Jackson Arnold<\/a><\/strong> has been a different guy since returning as the starter. The confidence is about as high as it has been since August.<\/p>\n

But, still, there are those injuries. From wide receiver to offensive line, they simply won\u2019t go away. However, Missouri has its own big-time injury with quarterback Brady Cook<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

A game both programs would love to have should make for a great environment Saturday night.<\/p>\n

OU back to OKPreps<\/h2>\n

Didn\u2019t expect much recruiting fireworks for Maine weekend, but OU did make a noticeable offer. Let\u2019s go back to OKPreps with Jenks (Okla.) High defensive lineman Cash Jacobsen<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Recruiting editor Josh McCuistion<\/strong> breaks it all down.<\/p>\n

Plus, OU and Missouri are no strangers on the recruiting trail. What might a victory in Mizzou\u2019s backyard mean for OU\u2019s recruiting efforts in the Show Me State?<\/p>\n

All that and all the banter you\u2019ve come to expect from the Unofficial 40 podcast from SoonerScoop.<\/p>\n
