Damnit. I was so close to having a peaceful college football free fall. Now I’m invested.

Bring on the stress.

THE RIVER IS RED AGAIN I DO NOT CARE

This is why I love CFB. OU is very unlikely to make any noise for the playoffs, but at the end of the day, they won the Red River.

Why is that game always chaos? I love it, but will never understand it.

Also wtf is Texas this year? Are they the worst elite team or the best mediocre team? It should have never been in reach for OU, but Texas kept making mistakes to keep the Sooners in the game.

RED RIVER IS AN ENIGMA. THROW OUT THE RECORDS. DISREGARD THE LINE. ITS HATE AND CORNDOGS IN THE STATE FAIR OF TEXAS

22

u/According_Grab_394 Ole Miss Rebels 6d ago

I need that in the hype videos…”It’s hate & corndogs”.

I’ve wanted to go to that game for years now, my cousin is moving to OKC next year…I now have a valid reason to spend all the money necessary to go.

u/Rnewell4848 Oklahoma • Red River Shootout 6d ago

There’s nothing, NOTHING, like 100,000 pissed off, drunk ass fans split down the 50 with nothing but hate in between them. Go if you can. It’s the greatest rivalry in sports and we all just saw why.

u/According_Grab_394 Ole Miss Rebels 6d ago

It’s one of the few rivalries that is actually better because it’s played at a neutral site. I’m mutually chaotic and I need to experience the hate.

u/Rnewell4848 Oklahoma • Red River Shootout 6d ago

There’s nothing like it. I regret not going this year. I went in 2017 and 2021 and I’ll be DAMNED if I’m not in that stadium next year. It’s fucking awesome. They boo children at halftime

u/dontwuwwy Oklahoma Sooners 6d ago

i think thats bc its neutral in that its perfectly balanced, two extremely passionate fanbases making as much noise as they can. any big play for either team will receive a comparable crowd response. sometimes neutral site games mean neutralize all fans, this is more of maximizing two counter points so that adding equal amounts positive and negative equals 0

Why is that game always chaos? I love it, but will never understand it.

It's the 50/50. You won't understand it until you've gone to one. There's just something surreal about the crowd going wild for the right plays, but also seeing the crowd going wild for the wrong plays.

u/Monster-1776 Oklahoma • Red River Shootout 6d ago

AS IS AND WILL ALWAYS BE AMEN

u/Dickhole_Fart Oklahoma Sooners • Murray State Racers 6d ago

House money now. Either we win enough to salvage a decent season or we have the season we all expected before today and make texass look even worse

u/Master_Brilliant_220 Oklahoma • Jackson State 6d ago

Don’t threaten me with my choice of two good times.

u/March4th2026 Oklahoma Sooners 6d ago

Yeah straight up we can go 3-9 and it wouldn’t phase me at this point. We got the hat, that’s all that matters

u/Aviator07 Texas A&M Aggies • SEC 6d ago

This is the best way to rub it in for Texas.

u/ApplicationPale1049 Oklahoma • North Carolina 6d ago

🤣 good luck next week either way

u/NobodysDarling405 Oklahoma Sooners • Kentucky Wildcats 6d ago

Same.

u/Urdnought Kentucky Wildcats • Oklahoma Sooners 6d ago

What’s your story? I’m a born and raised wildcat but married into a sooner family but have loved the Sooners every since

5

u/NobodysDarling405 Oklahoma Sooners • Kentucky Wildcats 6d ago

Born and raised in Frankfort, KY so grew up a Wildcat fan. Moved to Oklahoma after my Mom remarried after my Dad passed and became a Sooner. I live in North Carolina now after doing a stint in the Navy but I'm likely moving back to Oklahoma in a year or so to finish my bachelors degree at OU.

I want to win all the games but if there is one game that we can never ever lose, it's to Texas.

u/Melodicmarc Oklahoma Sooners 6d ago

I was so upset when I realized we might win because I knew it would be ripped away…

24

u/hereisjonny Oklahoma Sooners 6d ago

After the pick 6 I got real sad when I realized how much time was left.

8

u/Melodicmarc Oklahoma Sooners 6d ago

Especially when they drove down the field and tied it right back up

u/Poisonskittles3 Georgia Bulldogs • Tennessee Volunteers 6d ago

One loss away from peace.

u/SanchoPandas Oregon Ducks • Rose Bowl 6d ago

I am, however, at peace. Worries are for next season.

u/Dunsmuir Oklahoma Sooners 6d ago edited 6d ago

No matter what happens the rest of the season is good. If we win, good for us, but every loss makes Texas look bad. We've got this!

u/DrewSC South Carolina Gamecocks 6d ago

I feel this.

u/2th Tennessee • Summertime Lover 6d ago

I'm surprised y'all Gamecocks are capable of feeling anything at this point.

u/TheseusOPL Oregon Ducks • Pacific (OR) Boxers 6d ago

My fall is now free.

u/BluesPuckHard Oklahoma State • Tulsa 6d ago

u/iKickdaBass Oklahoma Sooners 6d ago

So true.

u/ryrobs10 Team Meteor • Iowa State Cyclones 6d ago

Just when you thought you were out, they pull you back in!

u/CrunchyChewie Oklahoma Sooners 6d ago edited 6d ago

I know, just when I was pretty ok with checking out and having quiet Saturdays the rest of Fall...

Now this team got me like: “you son of a bitch, I’m in”...

2

u/Ladyice426 Central Oklahoma • Oklahoma 6d ago

I kept saying I was done with college football for the year. Was going to drink less beer, be healthier, get in active time on Saturdays...

u/MediumStrange Cincinnati • Michigan 6d ago
