SEC football is back at The Grove this weekend as No. 18 Ole Miss aims to level their conference record against a struggling Oklahoma team on Saturday.
Ole Miss was shocked by Kentucky in their first SEC game and then dropped a nail-biting overtime thriller to LSU, losing both matchups by a combined six points. After an impressive 4-0 start, back-to-back three-point losses to Kentucky and LSU have taken some of the shine off their campaign. However, with a home game against Georgia still to come, and manageable road trips to Arkansas and Florida, there's hope.
Here, GOAL brings you everything you need to know about how to watch and listen to the Ole Miss Rebels vs Oklahoma Sooners NCAAF game, plus plenty more.

Oklahoma Sooners team news
In their most recent outing, Oklahoma fell 35-9 to South Carolina at home. Following the loss, head coach Brent Venables made the decision to part ways with offensive coordinator Seth Littrell on Sunday. It was a tough contest for the Sooners, who struggled to get anything going offensively.
The Sooners turned the ball over four times against the Gamecocks and had trouble converting key downs, going just 1-for-5 on fourth down and 6-for-19 on third down. Both Jackson Arnold and Michael Hawkins took snaps in the defeat.
Heading into the matchup with Ole Miss, Arnold is slated to start at quarterback.
