Monday morning, it was announced that the game against the University of Oklahoma will be at 3 p.m. in Stillwater. The two teams have an earlier matchup than usual, due to the resumption of a Big 12 title game.

The previous two years, Bedlam was the last game of the season and a de facto Big 12 championship game. In the interest of avoiding the same matchup two weeks in a row, Bedlam was moved to early November.
The game will be nationally televised on Fox Sports 1. This game is likely going to determine which of these teams makes it to the Big 12 Championship in Dallas. The announcement means that a Saturday night game in Stillwater is getting less likely, with only Kansas State and Kansas having dates in Stillwater the rest of the season.
