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.

They will travel better than Oregon would have imo.

OU's been around long enough to have a dedicated following whose first allegiance is to OU. Oregon "fans" are mostly run-of-the-mill frontrunners whose wardrobe includes clothing representing the champs of various sports.
