Oklahoma Sooners vs. Oklahoma State Cowboys game time announced

Despite the Oklahoma Sooners and Oklahoma State Cowboys both struggling in recent weeks, this year’s Bedlam matchup will be played in prime time.

OU-OSU will be played Saturday at 6:30 p.m. Central on ABC. The TV networks love Bedlam, and this year is no exception.

It’s going to be a cold night. The expected high on Saturday is 40 degrees, and the temperature is going to drop as the night goes on. Bedlam is going to be a cold one this year.

Oklahoma State is third in the Big 12. A loss and a Kansas State win would end its Big 12 Championship hopes.

Meanwhile, the Sooners still aren’t bowl eligible. A win on Saturday night would get them that sixth win.

Present for Bedlam will be former Sooners great Dusty Dvoracek, who will be a part of the broadcast team for Saturday night.

One year ago, this matchup was Lincoln Riley’s final game as the head coach of the Sooners. The aftermath of last year’s Bedlam will be remembered by Sooners fans for years to come.

Oklahoma is expected to remain a part of the Big 12 through the 2024 season, so there should be a couple more Bedlam matchups after this one. However, if Oklahoma, Texas and the Big 12 can agree to a buyout, this could end up being the final Bedlam contest for some time. If this will be the last time Oklahoma fans see the Pokes in Norman for a while, the Sooners need to make this night one to remember.
