The Texas State Fair is a glorious weekend, a revelry of Americana and football and fried foods. The event is larger than l ife, and at the centerpiece is one of the best games in college football: the Red River Rivalry.
This game feels massive even when it doesn't have stakes for the conference title or the playoff chase. When it does? It's downright earth-shattering.
Both teams are undefeated entering the game for the first time since 2011. Texas is favored, anywhere between five and six depending on the shop. That would be a much closer game than last season's 49-0 undressing that the Horns administered.
Oklahoma has obviously progressed from last year's calamity. The defense is vastly improved, and quarterback Dillon Gabriel is fully healthy.
That the Sooners are projected to be this close with a fully-back Texas team is a sign of how far Brent Venables has brought this Oklahoma program in his second season.
