Sugar Bowl primer: A matchup of powerful ‘O’ (Oklahoma) vs. stout ‘D’ (Auburn)

Auburn faces an Oklahoma team in Monday night’s Sugar Bowl that is one of the hottest squads in the country. The Sooners, who have won nine in a row, feature an offense that is second in the nation in scoring and headlined by two Heisman finalists – quarterback Baker Mayfield and wide receiver Dede Westbrook.

But while OU averages 44.7 points per game, Auburn allows only 15.6 points per game and has surrendered 20 or more just three times.

Here’s a closer look at the Sugar Bowl.
