I think Oregon fans would have spent much more money in a trip to the Big Easy.
In contrast, OU has some dedicated mouthbreathers who will make the trip to New Orleans just for the hell of it.

You're in Wichita Falls - of course, you know OU fans.
Last year the SEC seemed to take the bowl invites and slot teams to them.
Oregon is exactly the sort of team Coach Saban hates to play AND Stoops and the Sooners are a perfect opponent for the tide.
As far as sooner support of the Sugar Bowl, let's wait and see how sales go in Norman, OK. OU has a huge fan base but I am not certain they'll travel to see this match-up.

You know a bunch of OU fans and no Oregon fans when you live in Witchita Falls? No shite? I wonder why that might be?
And to answer the question, yes, I do know a few Oregon fans. They live in Colorado which is where they moved after they graduated from Oregon. The average Oregon person isn't going to move to Texas just like the average Oklahoma person won't move to Washington. Use your brain brah.

This.
Whenever I see someone around town in Oregon garb, I want to kick them square in the nuts. If you've never gone west of Tulsa and you're wearing Ducks gear, you're the epitome of a bandwagoner.
I've met a few Oregon "fans" here and there, none of whom have ever set foot in the state, let alone Eugene. I'm sure they're UO fans because ZOMG LOOK AT ALL THE POINTS!

I wonder if your location in Texas has anything to do with that
go out west and those statements would be flip-flopped
