The world of college football has many top rivalries, but one of the most anticipated every year is the Red River Shootout
between the University of Texas Longhorns and the University of Oklahoma Sooners. In 2010, the Sooners topped the Longhorns
28-20, but both teams will be looking to secure bragging rights for the 2011 Red River Shootout.
The history of the Red River Shootout makes it one of the most storied rivalries in all of football. It began more than
a century ago, and the Sooners and Longhorns have remained in a heated rivalry in the decades since. The series has remained
close because both the Sooners and the Longhorns are known for having some of the top teams in NCAA football.
One of the most interesting parts of the Red River Shootout is that neither team is granted home-field advantage. Instead,
the Red River Shootout is played every year at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas. The Cotton
Bowl has been a storied location in Dallas since the 1930s, and the Red River Shootout is a big part of its iconic college
football legacy.
The excitement at the Red River Shootout is one of the reasons that fans come back year after year. The passion of the
fans at the Red River Shootout each year is tough to match. The best way to experience the magic of the Red River Shootout
is to go with your fellow college football fan friends. Reserve sports
tickets for everyone this season.
