Overview
- Kickoff is 2:30 p.m. CT Saturday on ABC at Gaylord Family Oklahoma Memorial Stadium in Norman.
- Arnold has guided Auburn to 3-0 with 69–70% passing, four touchdown throws, four rushing scores, and no interceptions through three games.
- Oklahoma’s John Mateer has 944 passing yards with five touchdowns plus 161 rushing yards and four scores, drawing early Heisman consideration.
- Oklahoma’s defense ranks among the nation’s best in yards and points allowed, though edge rusher R. Mason Thomas must sit the first half after a targeting ejection last week.
- Auburn’s ground attack, led by Arnold and RB Jeremiah Cobb, meets an Oklahoma front that handled Michigan, a year after the Sooners rallied late to beat the Tigers 27-21.
