No. 6 Texas travels to Norman to face Oklahoma in Big 12 opener

On Saturday, the No. 6 Texas Longhorns travel to Norman to face off against the Oklahoma Sooners in a Red River Rivalry game to start the conference slate for both programs as the Longhorns seek to defend a three-game winning streak on the road against the Sooners.

The matchup at the Lloyd Noble Center pits the 11-1 Longhorns against the 9-3 Sooners as Texas acting head coach Rodney Terry tries to remain undefeated since replacing Chris Beard following the head coach’s felony arrest.

Oklahoma enters the game with losses to Sam Houston, Villanova, and Arkansas and an eight-point win over an Arkansas-Pine Bluff team that Texas beat 88-43.
