Today, it's the current national champions, Oklahoma versus the former many time national champion Georgia.
Oklahoma opens their season on the road and Georgia has their second meet in a matter of days. Georgia struggled in their season opener against Alabama and will definitely want to make Friday a distant memory. Oklahoma, as per usual is expected to kill it.
