All eyes will be on the Cotton Bowl this Saturday for one of college football’s most storied traditions—the Red River Rivalry.
This marks the 121st edition, where emotions run high and pride is on the line. The Texas Longhorns, currently holding a 3-2 record, will face off against the undefeated No. 6 Oklahoma Sooners, who remain perfect at 5-0 this season.
Despite recent struggles that have left Texas grappling with an identity crisis, the Longhorns remain favored by ESPN’s FPI projections. ESPN’s model gives Texas a 60.9% chance to secure the win on Saturday at the Texas State Fair.
A key question looms over this rivalry: Will John Mateer return for Oklahoma? This could significantly impact the game dynamics. If he’s unable to play as he continues to recover from a hand injury, Oklahoma would turn to Michael Hawkins Jr. at quarterback.
On the other side of the field, Arch Manning will be hoping to play a cleaner game against the Sooners. Manning has already thrown 5 interceptions in his first 5 games so far this year.
Kickoff is set for 3:30 p.m. ET live on ABC.
