Will the quarterback of the No. 4-ranked Oklahoma football Sooners please step forward. Going into Saturday’s Red River rivalry game with Texas, there was no question who was the Oklahoma starting quarterback. The job was Spencer Rattler’s. How could it not be? After all, we’re talking about someone who was 14-2 as the Sooners’ starter, […]
With 35 total points scored in the first quarter alone, 28 by Texas, you had the feeling that it was going to be a long one for fans of Oklahoma football. Forty-five minutes of game time later and over four hours in real time, it was Oklahoma with the most points and an improbable 55-48 […]
With a huge come-from-behind win over archrival Texas on Saturday, Oklahoma football is one of the movers and shakers in the Week 7 national rankings after a topsy-turvy day of fantastic finishes in college football. The Sooners (6-0, 3-0) moved up two spots in both the Associated Press Top 25 and the Coaches Poll this […]
In a day in college football filled with fantastic finishes, it is hard to top the improbable, 21-point, come-from-behind Oklahoma football win over hated archrival Texas at the Cotton Bowl on Saturday. The annual OU-Texas Red River Showdown was the main attraction at the State Fair of Texas on Saturday, and for the 92,000 energized […]

What a wild weekend in the world of college football.
If you’re a fan of the Oklahoma Sooners, you’re probably feeling pretty great right now after that heart-stopping comeback for the ages in the 117th edition of the Red River Showdown. Now that the dust has finally settled from another crazy weekend of college football, the latest AP rankings are out, and the voters have moved OU up to No. 4 in this week’s top 25 poll.
POLL ALERT: Georgia a unanimous No. 1 in latest AP Top 25, grabbing regular-season top spot for first time since 1982; Iowa, Cincinnati, Oklahoma and Alabama next; Big Ten has five top-10 teams for first time ever.
An unranked Texas A&M Aggies squad shocked the nation by taking down the mighty Alabama Crimson Tide in College Station on Saturday night. The upset snapped the reigning champs’ 19-game winning streak and allowed the Georgia Bulldogs to claim the nation’s No. 1 spot.
The Iowa Hawkeyes rallied at home to defeat the Penn State Nittany Lions, solidifying their status as a legitimate contender for the College Football Playoff. On paper, the road for Kirk Ferentz’s team looks clear from here on out with only a test in the Big Ten title game posing a serious challenge.
After the wildest edition of the Red River Showdown, the Texas Longhorns have fallen to the bottom of the top 25 rankings and are licking their wounds on their way back to Austin. Meanwhile, the Oklahoma State Cowboys are next on the schedule, and Mike Gundy’s team is still undefeated and eager to make a statement fresh off a bye week.
Both the Arkansas Razorbacks and Auburn Tigers suffered tough losses (to Ole Miss and UGA, respectively) that severely hurt their chances of winning the SEC’s West Division, even after ‘Bama’s loss to A&M. On the other side, another domino in the Southeastern Conference is set to fall as Georgia prepares to host the still unbeaten Kentucky Wildcats.
The BYU Cougars’ outside CFP hopes have officially flamed out after suffering an unexpected loss to Boise State. At this point, it looks like the Cincinnati Bearcats hold the non-Power Five’s last remaining hopes of crashing the postseason playoff party.
This is a place for Sooner fans to bask in Longhorn misery.
After a day like today, it’s always fun to look back on the countless wonders that humanity provides us with fan reactions in live-time as the Oklahoma Sooners came back from a 28-7 deficit spurred by Lincoln Riley replacing Spencer Rattler with Caleb Williams, who led the Sooners to a 55-48 victory. What awaits you below the dividing line in this post are some of the best reactions of Texas fans (via the message boards on Burnt Orange Nation and Horns247) as they watched their Texas Longhorns lose to Lincoln Riley and the Oklahoma Sooners. LET’S GET IT. (Note: Spelling errors are theirs, not ours)
It’s 9:24 am and ou Sucks!!
Career day for Casey, he was born for this. Good luck CT11, Hook Em!
Not a bad start.
WOW! Worthy 75 yd TD! 1st play!
Holy cow…only in my dreams…..never seen that before
Blocked punt, ball on the 3!
Offense, Defense, AND Special Teams?
Bijan TD, we are off to a fantastic start! 14-0 after a few minutes.!
Don’t let Up
ALL GAS, NO BRAKES!! yes, I’m shouting.lol
this cant be real, BUT if its a dream dont wake me up
PICK BJ!
Thank you Spencer!
I have seen plays from Texas that no OC has ever called before….this aint your your traditional UT offensive scheme
More Gas
Everyone prepared for Bijan, but….surprise!
crap.
WTH? Big baller busts through the line and is gone
Come on Texas , keep your composure….
Triple pass… Riley is desperate
They’re bringing in Caleb. Get some pressure on the rookie
Casey to Wylie TD!
that will be on his Heisman reel…
All Gas!
Texas defense looks like its either Glory or bust…
Need to run out the half. Points would be huge but can’t let OU get the ball back this half. Defense a little banged up and gassed.
D will win or lose this second half.
Thank goodness we have an eighteen point lead.
Dream finish: Horns complete the victory by steamrolling the sooners, CDC joins Sark in the post game pc to announce we will be joining the SEC next season.
The Texas D has missed a lot on Brooks in the backfield.
letting off the gas
We need to answer here. Score a TD and I think the game might be over.
OMG run, run, run and then steal the ball and TURNOVER!. Stick a fork in OU. Edit. He’s down. OU back in the game.
They’ll be saved by the refs again. Also wrap up his legs!
Can we hold them to a FG again?
Put Rattler back in
OU TD, foot still on the gas now.
You can tell Marvin Mims played baseball.
Still no flags for the land thieves
We’re the better team we can’t implode. We can’t run out the clock. We have to score again.
I need another beer. Red zone OU
Texas seems to be doing everything they can to keep OU in the game
Wow, these boys choking hard right now.
CT didnt miss a throw earlier, now he seems like he cant hit the broad side of the barn, its like they are playing to not lose
OU TD. Holy F**k.
CHOKE
Tied at 41. New game with 7:25.
Texas still doesn’t know how to finish. Brake pads are worn to dust
What kind of trickeration do we use?
OU just knows how to win. Horns need to learn.
I’m out
Fumble. We are going down. Now our turn to come from behind.
Just when you thought it couldn’t get worse
Oline getting whipped
Well. This is the biggest UT choke job I’ve seen in some time
NOOOOOOOO
We are shitting down our leg. OL is going to cost us the game
unbelievable
Went from a dream finish to a nightmare pretty quick.
Worthy redemption!
I’m exhausted
Lol it was 28-7 at one point.
This has to be the dumbest group of players I have ever seen. Their football IQ is that of a doorknob. One dumb mistake after another
They are not going to let Bijan beat them. Thompson has to win this game.
Too many yards given up on this drive. Brkic is good from here.
10 seconds, field goal range.
Welp you think any of the 5 stars coming after this embarrassment?
Is Herman still coaching for Texas? Looked a lot like it today.
God wants us to lose
I just don’t have any words.
I have plenty of the four letter variety.
Why under five different head coaches so we always find a way to make bone head mistakes over and over.
Riley>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Sarkisian
Stoops>>>>>>>>>>>>Brown
What the ***** is new
Time to make this freshman QB look like a Freshman
Damn Brkic gone make the kick
Gotta hope for another bad snap at this point.
Hope we block it and run it back for a TD!
JFC
Pain
Just rename Bevo to ‘Sisyphus’.
Well OUT COACHED AGAIN!!!!
Worst gut wrencher OU loss ever? 3 seconds…
Kennedy Brooks: 25 carries, 217 yards and 2 TDs. This plus all the long throws where our DBs were lost. OU 662 total yards
Now you can unleash all your hate on your team. Go for it.
Season is over. ******** angels in the outfield over there. God hates us.
Lol, at least we get best dressed trophy
Riley owns us.
Casey Thompson is Caleb Williams lite
That hurt. A lot. A whole lot
Casey Thompson couldn’t hold Williams water bottle.
What a pos defense. We are ******** OU’s ******
I want to puke
Volleyball thursday & Softball tomorrow
I’m gonna drink until all I remember is how good Bijan and X are
21 pt blown lead is the largest blown lead in program HISTORY. Yes. This is the worst loss
Lol, ok bro. You ever watch the loss to Kansas?
OU walks into this game knowing they can win. Texas walks in hoping they can win. Until that changes this will remain lopsided.
Some Social Media Posts from Saturday’s Victory:
Excuse us for awhile while we go do some celebrating.
• OU only had 6 Heisman winners • Spencer Rattler was in high school • Caleb Kelly was a junior in college • Joe Exotic was a free man • Half of the Avengers were dusted • Sicko Mode was hot • TikTok (as we know it) was 2 months old
6-0 babyyy. “That’s the reason why you come to Oklahoma” Appreciate coach and the men on this team that believed in me and had my back!! #HornsDown#NFW@TheClarkeStroud
