Oklahoma and Texas could bid farewell to Big 12 with Red River rivalry rematch in title game
Oklahoma and Texas might not be done playing each other in the Big 12 before going to the Southeastern Conference next year
DALLAS (AP) — Oklahoma and Texas might not be done just yet playing each other in the Big 12 before going to the Southeastern Conference.
Midway through the farewell season for the Big 12’s only remaining members with national championships, the fifth-ranked Sooners and No. 9 Longhorns again have established themselves as the league’s top two teams.
So instead of next fall under a different conference banner back at the State Fair of Texas, where Oklahoma won 34-30 in a classic battle of unbeaten teams Saturday, the 120th meeting of the Red River rivals could very well be a rematch in the Big 12 championship game on Dec. 2 at AT&T Stadium.
“I have no doubt we’re going to see them again in the Big 12 championship,” Sooners safety Peyton Bowen said.
