It's the best week of the year: Texas vs OU in the Cotton Bowl. The Texas State Fair, corn dogs, football, carnies working the fair, carnies wearing crimson... It's all wonderful. Even the 50% of it that's awful is wonderful. After all, you can't have pretty without ugly.
For many of us, the Red River Shootout is a birthright, but there are always a number of questions about the big game. To help you out, I've put together a handy FAQ for your reference, touching on the rivalry overall, as well as a bit on this year's Oklahoma team. These are all facts, verifiable on Wikipedia. Maybe.
Q: What is the all-time series record between Texas and Oklahoma?
A: The 2011 game will be the 106th meeting in the rivalry. The Allies lead the series over the Axis 59-41-5.
Q: Um, didn't Hank Williams Jr. just get cut from Monday Night Football for comparing the President to Hitler? Should we refrain from making comparisons between Oklahoma and genocidaires?
A: We were as surprised as you were that Hank Williams Jr. didn't know that Hitler was reborn in the body of Bob Stoops.
Q: Speaking of Bob Stoops, does he have a chin?
A: He does not. The Oklahoma head coach sold his chin to the devil for the 2000 national championship. The devil told him he could only get it back when he won a BCS Bowl Game on his own. And that UConn doesn't count.
Q: I heard that every time the Sooners score a touchdown, an angel has its wings ripped off by a demon, and is forced to tearfully beg the demon to cauterize the wounds. The demon will refuse, and the sobbing angel will lie in a puddle of angel blood and feathers for eternity, wondering why the Sooners are allowed to score touchdowns. Is that true?
A: Yes.
Q: Why do Sooners throw the Horns down all the time, even when they aren't playing Texas?
A: That's a good question, and one that we don't have a good answer for. We posed the question to a few Sooner fans and they provided us with a video response.
Q: Can I have those three minutes of my life back?
A: I'm really sorry, but no.
Q: Is it true that Oklahoma fans can't read?
A: This is one of those urban legends that's gotten a bit overblown over the years. In truth, an estimated 15-20% of Sooner fans are literate.
Q: Should we give the state of Oklahoma back to the Native Americans?
A: Setting aside that it would certainly be the fair thing to do, the rest of us are subsidizing Oklahoma with our tax dollars anyway. Kind of a win-win, isn't it?
Q: What is that horrible pony-drawn thing that tears around the Cotton Bowl?
A: Sooners sometimes refer to it as the Sooner Schooner, but it's official name is the Cheat Wagon.
Q: Last but not least, which is more pathetic: a Sooner or an Aggie?
A: An Aggie.
Q: Wow, really?
A: Really.
Q: Okay, so this year's team: how good is Landry Jones?
A: Kind of good? His overall numbers are gaudy, but against the five ranked teams he's faced over the past year he has 10 TDs against 9 INTs.
Q: Last year, I could have sworn the carnie running the ring toss was Landry Jones. Could that be right?
A: Common mistake. Everyone from the state looks like Landry Jones. Which is to say, a carnie.
Q: How good is Ryan Broyles?
A: Fucking good.
Q: Is it me, or is Brent Venables kind of a dolt?
A: It's not you.
Q: Will Travis Lewis ever not be the starting middle linebacker for OU?
A: I miss Ryan Reynolds, too.
Q: Can the Sooners actually rush the ball this year?
A: They ran the ball well against Tulsa and Ball State, but struggled with Florida State (2.9 ypc) and to a lesser extent Missouri (3.7 ypc).
Q: Any other Sooner names I should know for this year's game?
A: DE Ronnell Lewis is a terror on the edge, WR Kenny Stills is big and a damn tough cover in the end zone, and DB/LB Tony Jefferson plays the game fast as hell.
Hook 'em. And OU sucks...

He made Greg Davis look like a genius in 2008 with his failure to adjust to Jordan Shipley in the slot. Not an easy task making Greg Davis look like a genius.

that he decided not to ever coach in the NFL because he did not want to leave college football to the likes of Barry Switzer…who really was Hitler sans the stache. Next to him, big Bob is more like a Noriega.

Oh, I didn't mind that you were amused
I agree on the finding amusement where I can thing. Just that I’ve never been averse to making jokes like that.
Yep, you’re correct. There is a disproportionately high number of lawyers/lawyers to be on this board. What kind of law are you in?
Whoever said laughter is the best medicine had clearly never tasted Scotch.
I guess more than a few lawyers look for outlets
and we happen to be near computers much of the time. I’m in various sorts of litigation and arbitration — right now commercial and sovereign matters with a smattering of IP, but I’ve done everything from plaintiff’s wrongful death to medmal defense to criminal defense to antitrust.
I’m with a BigLaw in NY now (wifey’s career took us here) and have practiced all over the place, so I embrace getting shipped out on whatever case doesn’t fit within the mainstream.
Good luck on the bar results, btw.

A Sooner walks into a bar with a huge jar full of money sitting on the bar, he inguires to the bartender about the money. The bartender tells him he must complete 3 tasks to win the money.
1- knock the 7 ft 350 lb Shaquelle O’Neil look-alike out cold with 1 punch.
2-There is a pitbull out back on a log chain with a sore tooth, you must pull
that tooth.
3- There is a lesbian in the room upstairs who has never been sexually
satisfied by a man, you must satisfy her completely.
The Sooner says "no problem" walks to the end of the bar and knocks the 7 footer out cold with a single punch.
He then heads out the back door, where growling, barking, snarling, whining, then yelping is heard.
He stumbles back into the bar, clothes tattered and bleeding profusely and says, "OK now where’s that lesbian who needs her tooth pulled?

It is amusing that y'all think this is the biggest rivalry in college football
RRS has nothing on the Iron Bowl or Army-Navy.
by Beergut on Oct 4, 2011 5:58 PM CDT via mobile reply actions
The Iron Bowl is comparable
But that’s moreso of an in state Rivalry such as Texas – TAMU. Also they’ve only played 75 times, compared to 105 for the RRS.
The Army – Navy game is more of a tradiational “Pro-Army vs. Pro Navy” types of people and only REALLY matters inside Annapolis and Westpoint. It really isn’t much of a football rivalry since the days of competitiveness of those service academies.

Would you keep playing you if you were us?
Granted, playing Aggie in college station is no picnic and part of the decision would come down to whether or not we wanted to add another difficult non-con game, but from the fans perspective, playing Aggie has been a no-win situation for many years now…we win and it’s well, of course you did, you’re Texas and you have all the money and all the recruits. We lose, and it’s ha-ha, look who’s overrated.
I’m actually looking forward to a hiatus from the rivalry where A&M can go find an identity completely apart form UT and then a few years from now, continue the rivalry more as equals or at least without all the big brother/little brother BS.
In advertising, we never recommend a brand engage in a pissing match with the competition when the aggressor is clearly in a position where they have nothing to lose and engaging them only gives them more exposure.
That may sound terribly arrogant to you, but I think there’s some truth to it…or at least that’s how I and many Longhorns fans feel right now.
And I do think you give a damn if our two teams play or not…otherwise, you wouldn’t have bothered to comment…or spend so much time on this forum for that matter.

Texas v OU
I would say over the last 50-60 years the top rivalries have been:
Texas v OU, Michigan v Ohio St and Aub v Ala in no particular order. I am sure there are other good ones but in terms of importance of the games in terms of titles or championships, these 3 are the tops in college football
Also, I was just on your board reading some posts and its just sad some of the things that are out there. Most Texas fans I know have no problems with OU or Texas A&M fans and we all usually have intelligent discussions/arguments every year. I am not saying there aren’t bad Texas fans but that is true for every school out there. However, you, as the moderator for the Texas A&M SB nation blog, should be above the petty remarks and arguments. Sadly, your behavior and attitude only adds to the general Texas A&M fan perception of being petty, childish and kind of sad.
You could have actually changed that perception (at least in the SB nation universe), but you just add to it daily. Hopefully, you can leave the Texas stuff behind when you go to the SEC and hopefully you won’t be as childish.

Miami-Florida State has effected the national title picture
more in the last 20 years than Michigan-Ohio State has. They like to sing the praises of Michigan-Ohio State in B1G countrt, but reality is that game hasn’t had national title implications since Bo and Woody stalked the sidelines. 2006 was a rare exception to the rule.

I know you are just trolling
But it got me interested. Either Texas or UO (get it????) has participated in 6 of the last ten national championships, whereas the iron bowl has only recently had national championship implications.
60% is that good?
But A&M had that 1939 championship. Does that figure in to any statistic?
I guess the SEC can add that to all their national titles.

The Spanish Civil War ends. Aggies win National Championship. See, these events are still fresh in our minds.

The Iron Bowl has effected the last two national chaionships.
Given 2008 and its early position in the season, saying the RRS effects the national championship picture is dubious.

the point is Texas and OU get to the game and compete for it
when was the last time A&M even sniffed a National Title?

For God's sake, man...
at least wait until you’re (officially) in the G-damn conference before you start claiming ’Bama’s, Florida’s, LSU’s national titles as your own. Last time I looked, Aggie is still playing a Big XII schedule this football season.
I wouldn't get into a bowl game argument with an Aggie.
They’ve won two total bowl games in the last 20 years so they’ve had ample time to analyze other school’s accomplishments since they have none of their own.
