Week four brings a momentous occasion for Oklahoma Football as they prepare to mark their entrance into the SEC with an exciting clash against Tennessee. The highly anticipated debut will unfold in Norman amidst a charged atmosphere, as ESPN and ABC have lined up a star-studded cast for the historic moment. The renowned "College GameDay" crew, featuring Rece Davis, Desmond Howard, Pat McAfee, Nick Saban, Kirk Herbstreit, and Lee Corso, will be broadcasting live from Norman to build up the excitement for the inaugural SEC showdown. Joining them as this week's guest picker is country music star Blake Shelton, adding an extra layer of star power to the event.

Saturday's matchup will not only present a top-15 showdown with former five-star quarterbacks on display but also sees the return of a familiar face to Oklahoma Football. Josh Heupel, who led the Sooners to their seventh national title, will be back in the spotlight as the leader of Oklahoma's last championship-winning team. Heupel's legacy in Norman is well-established, having been a pivotal figure in transforming the Sooners into an offensive juggernaut. As the team gears up for the SEC debut, key players such as Nic Anderson, Branson Hickman, Tory Everett, Kendel Dolby, and Andrel Anthony are set to return, reinforcing Oklahoma's lineup.

In the lead-up to the highly anticipated matchup, both teams are facing contrasting situations in terms of player availability. While Oklahoma is benefiting from the return of key players, Tennessee is grappling with the absence of star offensive tackle Lance Heard, who has been ruled out following Friday's injury update. The stage is set for an enthralling encounter between two talented teams, as Oklahoma looks to make a statement in their SEC debut against the Volunteers.
