Ole Miss and Oklahoma move to Sunday after flight shutdown

No. 19 Mississippi’s game at Oklahoma was moved from Saturday to Sunday at 1 p.m. ET after the nationwide ground stop on Friday disrupted the Rebels’ travel.

Oklahoma athletic director Roger Denny objected to the change and told The Associated Press that the Southeastern Conference threatened a forfeit if Oklahoma did not agree. The game is still scheduled for Norman. The rescheduling takes one ranked team out of Saturday’s slate and gives Ole Miss an extra day to make the trip.
