Oklahoma AD in response to Florida counterpart's scheduling tweet: 'You have my attention'

NORMAN — Usually, major college football scheduling is done out of the spotlight.

But Tuesday, Florida athletic director Scott Stricklin took to Twitter to try to fill out the Gators' schedule.

Unsurprisingly, his Oklahoma counterpart responded.

Joe Castiglione wasn't the only one to get back to Stricklin through Twitter.

Oklahoma and Florida have played only once — in the BCS title game after the 2008 season. The Gators won that meeting, 24-14.

It might be awhile before anything could come to fruition, though.

The Sooners have at least one nonconference Power Five opponent on the schedule for every season through 2033.

Florida has one such game built into its schedule each season with Florida State. Unlike Oklahoma, the Gators have four nonconference games each season.

Iowa State athletic director Jamie Pollard used Stricklin's tweet to make a point about the strength of his program's scheduling — as well as the Big 12 overall — and call out the SEC's model.

Outside of the game against the Seminoles, Florida has a home-and-home against Utah in 2022-23, Miami in 2024-25, Colorado in 2028-29 and Texas in 2030-31.

The Gators haven't played a nonconference road game outside Florida since 1991, when the Gators traveled to Syracuse.
