The Sooners took Game 1 on Friday night, 4-3<\/a>, thanks to an eighth-inning rally that spoiled another one of Aidan King’s superlative outings, in which he struck out a career-high 10 batters over seven innings. The Gators struck back on Saturday with a 10-5 win<\/a> thanks to some standout play both at the plate and on the mound by Caden McDonald.<\/p>\n The Sunday matinee matchup features right-hander Russell Sandefer taking the mound against lefty Cord Rager.

Check out the all new PLAY hub with puzzles, games and more!<\/a><\/p>\n NOTES: Russell Sandefer went five innings last week, but he wasn’t at his best. The Aggies score three runs on eight hits and a walk, and he’s struck out a combined seven batters over his last three outings after fanning 11 against Ole Miss. Guys are figuring him out, but it’s still enough to win games. Unfortunately, the offense doesn’t pick him up at all whenever he starts.<\/p>\n Cord Rager is a 6-foot-6-inch, 237-pound lefty from a town with a population under 1,000. He’s still developing, but his low-90s fastball, low-80s slider and mid-80s changeup have been effective in Year 1. He holds a 4.74 ERA with 47 strikeouts (30.7%) and 15 walks (9.8%) over 38 innings. Opposing batters are hitting just .203 off him right now. He doesn’t go too deep in games, passing 75 pitches just twice this week. \u2014 David Rosenberg<\/p>\n Florida Gators starting lineup<\/p>\n Check back for the starting lineups before game time.<\/p>\n Oklahoma Sooners starting lineup<\/p>\n Check back for the starting lineups before game time.<\/p>\n What time is Florida vs. Oklahoma?Date: Sunday, May 3Start time:\u00a03 p.m. ET<\/p>\n The Florida vs Oklahoma game starts at 3 p.m. ET from Kimrey Family Stadium in Norman, Oklahoma.<\/p>\n What channel is Florida vs. Oklahoma?TV Channel:\u00a0SEC Network+Livestream:\u00a0ESPN+<\/a><\/p>\n Streaming options for the game include\u00a0ESPN+<\/a>.<\/p>\n Follow us\u00a0@GatorsWire<\/a>\u00a0on X, formerly known as Twitter, as well as Bluesky<\/a>, and like our page on\u00a0Facebook<\/a>\u00a0to follow ongoing coverage of Florida Gators<\/a> news, notes and opinions.<\/p>\n![\"\"\/](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1777833187_950_73904848007-CWS-G3-2.jpeg\")
