Oklahoma Faces No. 2 Georgia in SEC Opener

The Oklahoma Sooners are set to open their Southeastern Conference (SEC) schedule on September 26, facing the No. 2 Georgia Bulldogs in Athens. Georgia, already 3-0 on the season, secured their first SEC victory on the road against the Arkansas Razorbacks with a 45-17 win.

Oklahoma currently holds a 2-1 record. After a Week 2 loss to Michigan, the Sooners returned to a 14-6 victory over New Mexico, which led to them falling out of the AP Top 25 rankings.

The game is scheduled to kick off at 3:30 p.m. ET at Sanford Stadium in Athens, Georgia. The contest will be broadcast on ESPN. For those without cable, the game can be streamed via Sling TV's Orange plan, with options for day, weekend, or week-long passes. A 24-hour access pass is available for $4.99.

This matchup marks the beginning of a challenging stretch for the Sooners, who are set to play two of the top teams in the country within three weeks. Following their game against Georgia, Oklahoma will host No. 1 Texas after a bye week.
