We literally played in the title game earlier that year. OU played in it a year earlier. And 2010’s SEC is nothing like 2023’s.

OU’s whole deal is being the Joker to Texas’s Batman. If they aren’t playing Texas in Dallas, they might as well be Arkansas. Going to the SEC without that game would’ve been a losing formula.

The SEC won 9 titles from 2010 until now. What’s your point here?

Yes, but you were also 5-7 in 2010. That was the last game I attended in DKR. It was freezing that night and my Longhorn wife and her Longhorn buddies vanished to the Texas Exes center in the second quarter. I sat watching Cyrus Grey running up and down the field in that incredibly unimaginative Mike Sherman scheme.

And a better comparison is probably Oklahoma being Dale Doback and Texas being Derek Doback.

The SEC had won 5 NC in the 2000s, 6 in the 2010's, and 3 so far in 2020's

And lost both times to SEC teams

The Big 12 has won 2 NC since 2000, but has lost many title or playoff games to the SEC during that time.
