Kickoff time for Oklahoma State's season opener announced; updated look at the Cowboys' schedule

Oklahoma State fans can plan for five football games so far.

On Monday, the Cowboys' season opener against South Dakota State on Aug. 31 got an official kickoff time of 1 p.m. and will broadcast on ESPN+.

The Jackrabbits, who are two-time defending FCS champions, are coming off a 15-0 season and will look to shock the Boone Pickens Stadium crowd with an upset, which could clinch their 30th straight victory. However, the Cowboys are returning 21 starters from last season, in which they appeared in the Big 12 title game and went 10-4. The Week 1 matchup will be the first time the programs have met.
