Sooners, Notre Dame agree to two-year series beginning in 2012

•Oklahoma and Notre Dame have met nine times, with the Irish winning eight of the matchups.

With more games on the horizon for 2012 and 2013, a look at the series:

1999: Notre Dame 34, No. 23 OU 30 (South Bend)

•Oklahoma's future non-conference schedules are littered with premium opponents.

There's an effort to add at least one more: Ohio State.

OU and Ohio State are in discussion about a possible home-and-home series for the years 2016 and 2017.

The Sooners are scheduled to face a high-profile squad in every season through 2019, with the exception of 2016 and 2017. Adding the Buckeyes would give OU a lineup of foes that includes Miami, Washington, Notre Dame, Florida State, Tennessee and LSU.
