Improvements look good.

Keep the game in the Cotton Bowl.

Something happened to that Big Tex statue, correct? Or am I imagining something?

Did they rebuild it?

Can confirm. It's the opposite of a college football environment.

The only people that care where the red river pillow fight is held are ou and longhorns.

Yep been to cfb at Jerry World.

Dude although Jerry World is great, Aggie season ticket holders have wanted the Arky game back on campus for a long time. Has nothing to do with the stadium.

Jerry World >>> Cotton Bowl

Me & the wife managed to see the Sooners play Temple in Philadelphia this year as it was a short flight from one of our regional airports to Philly.

Not growing up around college football crazed fans such as myself she didn't have an appreciation for it until this but now she wants us to get to Dallas next year.

I'd like to stay at The Anatole though it won't be booking October 2026 for a couple of months yet.

Game tickets, there are always tickets. The trick is finding an individual rather than a ticket agency.

Why do fans from other schools not names OU and Texas always get so damn defensive about is playing this week? It’s usually A@M, LSU and Bama fans but man you have to let it go …. Regardless of how you feel this is one of the best rivalries in college football . Herby and Fowler said they get goose bumps calling the game .
