for Red River Rivalry game
The Oklahoma–Texas football rivalry is a college football rivalry game between border rivals Texas and Oklahoma. The two teams first played each other in 1900, and the rivalry has been renewed annually since 1929 for a total of 119 games as of 2023. The rivalry is commonly referred to as the Red River Shootout, the Red River Rivalry, or the Red River Showdown.[1][2] The name refers to the Red River, which forms part of the border between Oklahoma and Texas.
Since 1934, the game has been played on the second Saturday of October, though it has occasionally been played on the first Saturday. Since 1932, the game's site has been the Cotton Bowl inside Fair Park in Dallas. The winner of the regular-season matchup receives the Golden Hat trophy, a gold ten-gallon hat once made of bronze. The trophy is kept by the winning school's athletic department until the next game.[3]
