10 out of 11 doesn’t happen with a home and home. Home field advantage matters in college football and Jerry took that away so now this happened. He’s to blame.



As an OU fan who has watched OU play the Longhorns in Dallas every year for half a century... I feel your pain.

That game Saturday reminded me of how many times OU has lost to Texas in the Cotton Bowl by a similar manner. (Fluke plays and missed field goals). The OU/Texas game is too much a part of our program's history and legacy to ever take it out of Dallas...The game itself can't ever leave there

But I'd never advise any team to give up a home game to play a neutral site game in the other team's home state if your main concern is wins and losses.

Because even if it is not true... (that you wouldn't have gone 1-10 against that opponent home and home)...it's always going to seem that way.

If it was home and home then games would go back and forth. I feel that playing in Arlington favored A&M more because it is still in Texas and feels more of a home game to them. The same with Arkansas in Little Rock.
