As ESPN staff writer Bill Connelly astutely noted in an article posted on the sports and entertainment network’s website Thursday morning, we are officially 100 days away from Sept. 2, the first big weekend of the 2023 college football season, including the season opener for Oklahoma football.
The Sooners open at home on that date, hosting Arkansas State, the first of back-to-back home dates to kick off the 2023 season and year two of the Brent Venables era of Sooner football. SMU is the opponent in Week 2.
Connelly’s post on Thursday this week provided narrative for ESPN’s revised SP+ Power Rankings for the coming college football season.
