The Week 3 clash between Florida and LSU quickly turned into a fashion statement because of ESPN’s Molly McGrath. Now, the crew made the trip to Baton Rouge to cover the exciting matchup, which ended up being a hype show for McGrath because of her appealing outfit. After a decade of turning up things on the sidelines with her witty and energetic take on camera, Molly now hosts programs like College Football Live and even provides coverage for Fox Sports. But with her hustle on the sidelines, she knows how to keep up her fashion game, and now with week 4 knocking on the door, she’s ready to make a statement again while rocking her outfit in Oklahoma’s scorching heat!
Both Auburn and Oklahoma are off to a 3-0 start, and this game might break one of their undefeated streaks. That’s what makes this game even more interesting. On top of that, Molly McGrath will be right there to turn up the heat on the sidelines. But not before adapting to Oklahoma’s humid and hot 26-degree temperatures. Her move? Grabbing a new outfit that might help her beat the heat and sharing the picture of her in the trial room wearing a black tank top with a short grey skirt. McGrath puts up a perfect IG story with caption: “Severely underestimated the heat in Oklahoma, so now I’m buying my gameday outfit at @kohls.”
No wonder Molly McGrath knows how to dress up well for the occasion, and last week during the LSU vs. Florida game, she clearly proved it. With her white miniskirt with a sleeveless white waistcoat with gold buttons, and flap pockets, Molly was giving pure fashion goals. With her outfit, even her accessories were on point, as she wore a gold necklace and bracelets while pulling it all off with white sneakers. Well, what’s more comfortable than sneakers, right?

And you know fans are going gaga over it, reading comments like “Love this cutie outfit!!” below her post. But let’s not forget her outfits don’t just define the work she has done all these years. From doing sideline studio work for almost every major college sport for ESPN to bringing impact, especially on game days, she sure made an impact. The result? Molly McGrath now ranks among the top sideline reporters at the network, with only Holly Rowe and Laura Rutledge above her.

But what makes her an instant inspiration for all budding female reporters is her resilience. During her time as a reporter for the Sugar Bowl Game last year, a deadly terrorist attack took place in New Orleans, but she didn’t leave her work and run off; she faced her fear. “2025 did not start the way any of us thought it would…a terrorist attack, a postponed game, and overall just feeling scared and wanting to get home to my babies. But today was a beautiful reminder about the power of human connection… A football game. A reason to smile. I feel so grateful,” Molly said.
Now, the game’s heat is raging, and it looks like Oklahoma might have an upper hand.
Can the Auburn Tigers keep up against Brent Venables’ Sooners?
This clash is more than just a conference title game; it’s more of a revenge game for Jackson Arnold, who once took a snap for Oklahoma. That’s right, after finishing a shaky 2024 season and getting benched against Tennessee for three turnovers, he’s ready to show his real caliber. And this game is his perfect opportunity to make it happen.
But even Oklahoma has John Mateer, who’s leading the SEC in passing in just three games and is a serious Heisman contender. On top of that, even Joel Klatt believes Mateer will be the difference-maker for Oklahoma. As he said, “If you put me in a game in which quarterbacks have to be great, and you have to score on multiple possessions, several possessions, or the majority of possessions, who do you favor? This is an easy one. Is it Jackson Arnold or Mateer? It’s Mateer. That’s an easy one, so even at the -6.5, I’m going Oklahoma.”

The hype makes sense, as his first three games’ record shows his excellence. He’s thrown for 944 yards, five touchdowns, and three interceptions, which puts him seventh in the FBS in passing yards. On top of that, Mateer also added 161 rushing yards and four more touchdowns on the ground. But what might be a big concern for Oklahoma is he has thrown an interception in all three of their games.
Now, let’s wait and see if Jackson Arnold takes his revenge or John Mateer keeps pushing Oklahoma’s faith.
