The No. 6-ranked Oklahoma Sooners will tank on the newly unranked Texas Longhorns in the Red River Rivalry game on Saturday. It is always a highly anticipated matchup each year, and the same is true this year. Last year, the Longhorns defeated Oklahoma 34-3 in one of the most dominant showings in the rivalry in recent years. The Longhorns have won two of the past three years, but before that, they had lost four straight times.
Here is everything you need to know so you can watch the game.

What To Expect In The Oklahoma vs. Texas Game
Heading into this season, most fans would have predicted a dominant showing for the Longhorns in the Red River Rivalry game. However, the season has not gone as expected for Texas. Quarterback Arch Manning has not lived up to the hype. While he has put up good numbers against some weak teams, the Longhorns dropped games against Ohio State and Florida.
Conversely, Oklahoma has been a pleasant surprise this year, starting the year with a 5-0 record. QB John Mateer was a huge driving force for the team early in the season, but he missed the team’s last game with an injury. While he was initially projected to miss a month, he is listed as probable for Saturday’s game.
With Mateer expected to return against Texas, we believe Oklahoma will come out on top. They have the better quarterback and a stronger team as a whole.
