Oklahoma quarterback Jackson Arnold will get the start under center when the Sooners visit No. 18 Ole Miss on Saturday, coach Brent Venables announced during his coaches show Monday night.

Arnold, the sophomore passer, began the season as Oklahoma's starter but had not appeared in a game since Sept. 21 before he came off the bench Saturday to replace freshman quarterback Michael Hawkins Jr. in the first quarter of the Sooners' 35-9 defeat to South Carolina.

Arnold completed 18 of his 36 passes for 225 yards with a touchdown in the Week 8 loss, which dropped Oklahoma to 4-3 and 1-3 in SEC play.
