In case there was any confusion, the Red River Shootout is still on for 2020.
Texas Longhorns vice president and athletics director Chris Del Conte release a statement on Tuesday. “Though we certainly respect and understand the decision of the folks in Dallas on their cancellation of this year’s State Fair of Texas, we fully anticipate that our annual Red River Showdown with Oklahoma will be played in the Cotton Bowl and are continuing to prepare for that,” Del Conte wrote. “We know the decision to cancel the fair was an extremely difficult one for everyone involved and that we all are dealing with a very fluid situation during these unprecedented times.
