The SEC is embarking on a new adventure in 2024, welcoming the Oklahoma Sooners and the Texas Longhorns to the conference. With the season kicking off, Oklahoma and Texas were featured in a video released by the SEC Network’s social media account on X formerly known as Twitter.

In a play on the 1990s animated “X-Men The Animated Series”, the SEC featured a number of teams, including the Red River Rivals.

Jalen Milroe, Alabama, as Cyclops.

Carson Beck, Georgia, as Storm.

Harold Perkins, LSU, as Wolverine.

Quinn Ewers, Texas, as Jubilee.

Jaxson Dart, Ole Miss, as Gambit.

Luther Burden, Missouri, as Nightcrawler.

James Pearce, Tennessee, as Magneto.

Danny Stutsman, Oklahoma, as The Beast.

Danny Stutsman as The Beast is fitting, considering he matches a physical play style with an intelligence garnered from years of experience. The preseason All-SEC and All-American selection will lead the Oklahoma Sooners defense into the SEC as they hope to make a run at a conference title in year one in the league.

The Sooners open year one in the SEC Friday night at 6 p.m. CT against the Temple Owls. Their first SEC game comes in Norman on September 21.
