Tramel: Will this OU football team go the way of 2005 mediocrity or 2016 championship?

DALLAS — The Sooners arrive at a crossroads as they enter Fair Park on Saturday morning, and I don’t mean the avenues of Haskell and Fitzhugh.

For 134 years, revelers have descended upon East Dallas and cast their fortunes one way or another.

The Midway or Big Tex’s Farmyard? Corny dogs or fried Oreos? Car show or African American Museum?

The Sooners have such a Y on Saturday at a pandemic-stricken fairgrounds that will be void of the fair.

2005 or 2016?

OU plays Texas with already two defeats on the Sooner ledger. Perhaps you heard.
