Red River Rivalry - page 2

Oklahoma’s downward spiral continues with 49-0 shutout by Longhorns

by

Using your tight end to run a Wildcat offense was the right early game plan to put a spark in an Oklahoma offense hampered by the absence of a concussed starting quarterback.

It did that early, although the Sooners were unable to turn it into points.

But by the second quarter in the Cotton Bowl that unique twist became an all too predictable act of desperation, which was no solution for a porous defense Texas hammered with 49 unanswered points in the Red Rivery Rivalry.

Texas (4-2, 2-1 Big 12) won 49-0. And the failure of Oklahoma (3-3, 0-3) on both sides of the ball extended on the sideline and well into the coache’s booth of the press box.

Oklahoma allowed the most points ever to the Longhorns.  The defeat marks OU’s first loss to the Longhorns since 2018 and improves Texas’ lead in the all-time series to 63-50-5.

Lincoln Riley matched Bob Stoops record of 5-1 through his first six games against the hated longhorns last Saturday at the Cotton Bowl. 

In what might have been the greatest game ever played between the rivals, the texas longhorns new “triplets” had stat lines that looked like a video game, but in the end, it didn’t matter. 

Quarterback Casey Thompson threw for 388 yards and 5 touchdowns. 

Running back Bijan Robinson carried the ball for 137 yards and 1 touchdown and receiver Xavier Worthy caught 9 passes for 261 yards and 2 touchdowns.

All that, and they LOST. 

That and many other things made the fourth victory in a row for Oklahoma in this series that much sweeter.
