NORMAN ā We asked. You answered.
Sooner Nation voted for a white out for the season opener vs. Houston on Sunday, Sept. 1. Over 17,000 votes were cast in an @OU_Athletics Twitter poll, with the white out collecting 42 percent of the vote among four options.
Now all that's left to do is show up unanimously wearing white as the Sooners kick off the 2019 season in primetime in front of a nationally televised audience at 6:30 p.m. (CT) on ABC!
The game is nearly sold out. A limited number of season tickets are still available. Order now to secure your seats for the opener. You can also shop for your white gear now in the OU Online Store. The Sooner Shop (1185 Asp Ave., Norman) and other local retailers will also be stocking up on white apparel in advance of the game.
