The kickoff time for three of Oklahoma’s contests in 2022 have been set.
OU’s season opening contest against UTEP on Sept. 3 will get rolling at 2:30 p.m., and the game will be broadcast on Fox.
The following week, the Sooners will take the field against Kent State at 6 p.m. This year’s contest against Kent State will be streamed on ESPN+, as it will take the place of the pay-per-view game Oklahoma has played in years past.
