The Oklahoma Sooners are back in action on Saturday night when they take on the Florida Gators in primetime. Oklahoma is hoping to rebound from their 17-point loss to the South Carolina Gamecocks at home. This time, the Sooners are on the road in Gainesville for the first time in program history.
At 4-4, the Sooners are playing for bowl eligibility and pride after a disappointing Year 5 season for Brent Venables in Norman. They'll face a Gators (5-3, 3-3 SEC) team that owns signature wins over Ole Miss and Texas and has taken positive steps in year one of the Jon Sumrall era.
The biggest stories of the week have come on the offensive side of the ball for both teams. The Oklahoma Sooners moved on from offensive coordinator Ben Arbuckle on Monday and handed the reins to the offense over to future Hall of Famer and Sooners tight ends coach Jason Witten.
For the Gators, they've gone back and forth between quarterbacks Aaron Philo and Tramell Jones. This week, it'll be Jones starting for Florida when they take on one of the better defenses in the SEC.
The Florida Gators will honor the 2008 national championship team that knocked off Sam Bradford and the Sooners. Can the Sooners spoil the party on Saturday night in Ben Hill Griffin Stadium? Here's how you can tune in.
The Oklahoma vs. Florida game starts at 6:45 p.m. CT from Ben Hill Griffin Stadium in Gainesville, Florida.
