Two new head coaches. Two storied football programs. One big stage.
The Texas Longhorns (3-2, 2-0) and the #12 Oklahoma Sooners (4-1, 1-1) will square off for the 112th time on Saturday at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas, Texas. Each team brings different momentum into one of college football’s oldest and largest rivalries. The Longhorns won a double-overtime game 40-34 against Kansas State in Austin last weekend, while the Sooners suffered their first loss of the season, at the hands of Iowa State 38-31.
Last week doesn’t matter and neither do records in this rivalry.
A win by either team lays out a path for success as they head down the second-half of the college football season. The Longhorns would maintain an undefeated Big 12 record by upsetting the Sooners, while the Sooners would get back on track for competing for a shot at the league’s crown and more.
