When it comes to the Red River Showdown, I always plan to expect the unexpected. This year, the Texas Longhorns are expected to roll at the Cotton Bowl. But if that’s what’s expected, should we be prepared for the Oklahoma Sooners to keep it close?

Preview the Texas Longhorns vs. Oklahoma Sooners college football matchup, with score predictions, stats, and game information.

This year, the two teams will forgo their usual 11 a.m. kickoff and instead start at 2:30 p.m. Central Time. The later time is a result of their move to the SEC, which traditionally schedules its bigger games in the late afternoon window.
