University of Oklahoma announces ESPN will broadcast GameDay from Norman

10/8/2007
The University of Oklahoma announced today ESPN will broadcast its GameDay program from campus Saturday.


The sixth-ranked Sooners will face the undefeated and 11th-ranked Missouri Tigers at 5:30 p.m. on Fox Sports Net. It will be the Homecoming game for Oklahoma.


It will be the 14th time the show has broadcast preceding an Oklahoma game, including last year's game at Texas A&M.


GameDay's last visit to Norman was for the 2003 Oklahoma State game. Other trips to Norman included the 2000 Nebraska game, the 2001 Kansas State game and the 1995 Colorado game.


The exact location for the GameDay set will be determined later this week.

GameDay features host Chris Fowler and analysts Lee Corso, Kirk Herbstreit and Desmond Howard, who spend two hours each Saturday morning providing in-depth coverage of college football.


The Sooners have sold out the stadium for the last 52 straight games.
