Oklahoma agrees to home-and-home series with Tennessee

The Sooners will host Tennessee on Sept. 13, 2014. Oklahoma will play in Knoxville on Sept. 12, 2015.

Oklahoma and Tennessee have met twice before but never in the regular season.

Tennessee beat the Sooners 17-0 in the 1939 Orange Bowl, and Oklahoma won 26-24 in the 1969 Orange Bowl.

“This matchup is another opportunity for two of the great traditional college football programs to meet on the field,” Tennessee athletic director Mike Hamilton said.

The Vols have not faced an opponent from the Big 12 in the regular season since a 52-17 victory over Texas Tech in 1997.
