OU-Texas: My apology to Sooners everywhere
I apologize to all my fellow Sooners.
Last weekend I didn’t follow my OU-Texas traditions.
I didn’t eat Bevo burgers in Marietta.
I didn’t play putt-putt on Friday afternoon like I had done every Friday afternoon before the Red River Rivalry in the last decade.
I didn’t have lunch and play paper football at the Humperdinks sports bar.
Heck, I didn’t even travel the same road to Dallas. I got cute and did an end run around that Denton traffic jam by taking I-35 West for a ways before sneaking back into Dallas from the west. It seemed like a good idea at the time. Never again.
I don’t know exactly how my poor choices generated enough bad karma to cause the Sooners to lose 36-20 to those steers from Austin, but I have no doubt in my mind they had something to do with it.
