It's big game in Dallas TX. The Red River Rivalry between the Oklahoma Sooners and Texas Longhorns. Every year, this place is divided equally with Reds and Burnt Oranges. Anyone not wearing either of these colors should just get out of the way. We're serious when we talk about Da Game.

 

Once a year, on OU-TX weekend, the parties start on Friday. The West End Dallas area will probably be swamped with die-heart OU and TX fans from all over the country. Many more throw their very own OU-TX home parties. Yes, we take the day off and make it our own 3-day weekend here in town. The schools are officially off on the Friday before the game to give their students an opportunity to travel 200 miles south (for OU fans) and 200 miles north (UT fans) to meet in Dallas - the center of their meeting place. It is sports' greatest rivalry in a neutral zone.


The OU-TX game is held in conjunction with the Texas State Fair at the Cotton Bowl. Our first match at the Cotton Bowl began in 1929 when it only housed 16,000 fans. Tomorrow, it is estimated that we will have over 92,000 show up for just this game alone. It is always a SOLD-OUT event. It will be the 109th time these 2 teams played each other. Now, that's tradition worth living!

 

If you are an Oklahoma Sooner, it doesnt matter how your season looks like. It doesn't matter if we are headed to the National Championship. All that matters is that we WIN this game.

Oh by the way, I never work OU-TX weekend too. The game kicks off at 11am CST and I'll be on my front row seat rooting for my team from home.

 

 

                        BOOMER SOONER!!!!                     

 

 

I guess you know whom I'm rooting for.....

Hi Loreena... Good luck tomorrow.  Not having much affiliation with either school, for me it's just a fun weekend in Dallas.

Loreena - I didnt notice until reading your post right now that Oklahoma fans say "OU - TEX" game. When I say it, I say "Texas OU" game. Do you think we just say our teams first on purpose?

Anyway, this should be a good game. I have my son's football game at 1:30 so I'll see a little of it and then tivo the rest. Im sure it will be like EVERY YEAR and someone will tell em the results before I get a chance to watch it for myself.

Good luck this weekend (well, not really.. but I want it to be a good game anyway).

Sorry about the end result, but at least both teams competed. It wasnt pretty, but it was close. I don't typically watch college games unless I know for sure it will be a good match-up. I cant stand watching those games that are 45-6, which seems to happen often.
