NORMAN, Okla. -- No. 3 Oklahoma squares off with No. 11 Texas in the 106th edition of the Red River Rivalry on Saturday, Oct. 8, at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas. ABC has the national telecast beginning at 11 a.m. (CT).
The Sooners and Longhorns both enter the game unbeaten for the 26th time in series history. Texas' success thus far in 2011 has been bolstered by a young cast of characters on offense with familiar last names: QB Case McCoy, WR Jaxon Shipley and RB Malcolm Brown.
