Oklahoma athletic director Joe Castiglione said Thursday that the school is unhappy with Fox's decision to show this season's game against Nebraska in Norman as the network's early kickoff on Sept. 18.
"We are bitterly disappointed that the great Oklahoma-Nebraska rivalry, on the 50th anniversary of the Game of the Century, will kick off at 11 a.m. [local time]," Castiglione said in a statement. "We tried every possible avenue to proactively make our case. The Big 12 Conference also supported our strenuous efforts to secure a more traditional time that would honor this game and our fans.
