The Oklahoma Sooners?open with one of the most-anticipated games of the 2016 college football season when they visit the Houston Cougars at NRG Stadium on Saturday, Sept. 3, at noon ET on ABC. The first full week of the season, however, kicks off two days earlier, on a Thursday night featuring 16 FBS games. That Thursday night is now just 28 days away.The number 28 is significant to Oklahoma fans. One of the greatest running backs to ever play for the Sooners, Adrian Peterson, wore No. 28 for three seasons in Norman. Peterson totaled 4,041 career rushing yards and scored 42 touchdowns for the Sooners. His freshman season, 2004, stood out as the best of his college career. He rushed for a Big 12 single-season record 1,925 yards, averaging 5.7 per carry and reaching the end zone 15 times. His 339 rushing attempts in 2004 broke the NCAA record. He finished second to Matt Leinart in Heisman voting that year.Peterson wasnt as durable in the next two seasons, appearing in 11 games in 2005 and just seven games in 2006. The Sooners were a combined 31-8 during Petersons career, capturing the 2004 and 2006 Big 12 titles. The Minnesota Vikings selected him with the No. 7 overall pick in the 2007 NFL draft.In case you missed the start of our countdown:29 days: Alabamas Bryant-Denny Stadium opened in 192930 days: Vinny Testaverde won the Heisman 30 years agoKawhi Leonard Clippers Jersey .

The Gamecocks used two quarterbacks in the win -- Perry Orth and Brandon McIlwain. First-year Gamecocks coach Will Muschamp said Orth did enough to earn the start against the Bulldogs, but its clear that the competition continues.Its a tough call to make, Muschamp said.Mississippi State used two quarterbacks -- Damian Williams and Nick Fitzgerald -- in its season-opening 21-20 loss to South Alabama. Williams played the majority of the game, throwing for 143 yards and running for 93 more. Coach Dan Mullen hasnt revealed his plans under center for the South Carolina game.The Bulldogs will also try to get star receiver Fred Ross more involved in the offense. He caught six passes for just 34 yards against South Alabama. His best play came on a 46-yard run in the first half.Theres only one ball, Mullen said. There are a lot of people who would like it into their hands, so well keep working as hard as we can to get as many people touches as we can.---Some things to watch when Mississippi State hosts South Carolina:JEFFERSONS GOOD START: Mississippi State senior defensive end A.J. Jefferson was one of the few bright spots in the teams loss to South Alabama. He made seven tackles, including a career-high four for a loss and two sacks. Jeffersons 28+ tackles for a loss in his career rank sixth in MSU history.LEO LEADS THE DEFENSE: Redshirt freshman linebacker Leo Lewis led Mississippi State with nine tackles, including two for a loss, in his colllege debut against South Alabama.dddddddddddd The 6-foot-2, 230-pounder will likely be a mainstay on defense for the next few years. Said Mullen: He made some plays. Its good to see him get some play action. As a young player he has to learn the standard of play and how to play hard every single snap.MORE ORTH: Mississippi State will get another dose of the Orth family this week against South Carolina. After losing to South Alabama 21-20 at home last week with sophomore quarterback Evan Orth on the roster, the Bulldogs will face his brother, Gamecocks starting quarterback Perry Orth, on Saturday night. While Evan Orth did not play, he did watch -- and share some details and schemes with his brother this week.MORE COWBELLS: Ask any South Carolina player things they know about Mississippi State and one of the first things that come up are the cowbells. Bulldog fans are famous around the Southeastern Conference for ringing the loud, metallic-sounding cowbells to the distraction of opponents. Those cowbells, defensive lineman Dante Sawyer said, smiling and shaking his head. South Carolina has not played at Mississippi State since 2011 so almost no one on the roster has much firsthand experience at the droning sound except longtime SEC head and assistant coach Will Muschamp, the Gamecocks first-year head coach. We have our work cut out for us in Starkville, he said.SOUTH CAROLINAS STREAK: South Carolina has won the last seven games in the series dating back to 2000. The Bulldogs last beat the Gamecocks 17-0 in Starkville on Sept. 25, 1999.---AP Sports Writer Pete Iacobelli in Columbia, South Carolina, contributed to this story.---Follow David Brandt on Twitter: www.twitter.com/davidbrandtAP---AP College Football website: www.collegefootball.ap.org ' ' '
