    The Red River Showdown was the first college game I saw as a kid, back when dinosaurs roamed the Earth. :D

    I went in 2009. Definitely a fun atmosphere. Heading to a grad school friend’s house for a watch party on Saturday. Hoping Sark can get the boys a W.

    Brent Venables is channeling his inner "Mus-take". Damn...bad...idea and execution on a "Tebow" jump pass. Playing stupid. 21-0 in the second for UTx.

    There's a big reason why he has been a lifelong assistant.

    Good showing by OU. Are they ready to run the Venables out on a rail already?

    The two larger defeats for OU:

    1997 69-7 loss to Nebraska
    1996 73-21 loss to Nebraska

    Scott Frost was QB for Nebraska in those games.

    Ill tell you what I was at a UT/Oklahoma game and those two schools DAMN SURE hate each other. Think FSU or Georgia and then triple it. There were a bunch of fist fights before and after the game and most of them were let to play out. I hate to see how bad Oklahoma is going to get razzed for the next year after getting bombed today.
