OpenGL 2d example game

Question

Im beginning to learn SDL and OpenGL to start off game programming. I can load sprites and stuff in SDL but I want to learn to use OpenGL to load sprites and make the sprites move. I cant seem to find a single tutorial on 2D OpenGL game programming. From what I've read there are many advantages to using 2D with OpenGL rather than strictly SDL. So if anyone knows of a source code where I can move around a sprite like a simple game, like the basics of mario. Thanks
