Marvin Mims makes spectacular game-tying TD grab for Oklahoma This year's edition of the rivalry wasn't just notable for the comeback itself. "I'm trying to think of the moments in my career that I've been prouder of a team," OU coach Lincoln Riley said. It was the first time in the history of football at the University of Texas it lost a game that the Longhorns led by 21 points. This year, in the first meeting since both schools announced an as-yet-to-be-determined departure for the SEC, a true Big 12 brouhaha erupted, with Oklahoma stunning Texas by coming back from a 28-7 first-quarter deficit. In the eerie setting, the two teams played for nearly five hours, a four-overtime slugfest featuring what was until Saturday's 103-point affair the most points in the history of the rivalry as the Sooners pulled out a 53-45 win. It's the only game played in a 91-year-old stadium in the middle of thousands of people eating corn dogs and balls of fried seafood gumbo.īut that didn't matter in 2020, when it was in the middle of an empty fairgrounds after the fair itself was canceled, with just 24,000 fans in the 92,000 seats. Nothing that you can expect to matter usually matters.
