Injuries: New Jersey 4 probable, 2 questionable, 2 doubtful, 1 I.R. Oklahoma 4 probable, 3 questionable

Prediction: Oklahoma 23 New Jersey 10

I was going to pick Oklahoma regardless of opponent, although I still think New Orleans would have a better shot at the upset than my Generals. Oklahoma has given up 3 total points in 2 playoff games so New Jersey should find it tough to score. The Generals have given up exactly 13 points in all 3 of their road wins and will likely need to hold Oklahoma to 13 or less for a chance at the upset.
