For the 250th time, No. 13 Oklahoma and Oklahoma State will play each other in basketball when they meet Saturday night in Oklahoma City.
But this version of the Bedlam series, which will be contested for the 98th consecutive season, will mark the first time since 1958 this has been a nonconference game. Oklahoma's move to the Southeastern Conference this summer means the programs go from at least two meetings a year in the Big 12 to just this one, barring an unexpected matchup in a postseason tournament.
This one should have a bit more juice than some might suspect.
