Southeastern Oklahoma is about as southern as you can get. Kansas is decidedly midwestern, Oklahoma is most definitely a mixture of southern, great plains, and western.

Spending a weekend in OKC will be much more rewarding than College Station or Columbia, that’s for dang sure. I personally care less about tailgating and more about the surrounding area, just personal preference. Plenty to do and see in OKC metro after the game, some visiting fans will end up staying in Bricktown and commuting to the game.

SEC teams will for sure have to adjust to the wind and cold when playing in Norman, Oklahoma is most def windier than Chicago.

Spot on. SEOK is literally nicknamed “Little Dixie” because many southerners fled there and started new lives in the territory. Strong southern influence around there much more than the rest of the state which is mostly southwestern/Midwestern.

I think Oklahoma is where the south meets the west. The eastern 1/3 feels sort of like the South. Tulsa feels a lot more like the Midwest and Oklahoma City and beyond feels like the West.
