OU / Texas all the way. That is one ugly rivarly. Its a huge rivalry even when the teams suck, but for the past few years, both teams have returned to being powerhouses.

You know its bad when the local hospital in Dallas takes bets on which team will have the most fans sent to the hospital!

Funny side story: I was at College Station for the OU/A&M game in 2000 when Sooners won the national title. A&M / UT is another rivalry on about the same scale as OU / UT, so the two teams that UT hates the most were playing. There was one lone guy admidst 80,000 Aggie and Sooner fans that was decked out from head to toe in UT burnt orange.

Now, I'm no genius, but wow....that guy probably died before the day was over. Fans from both sides were screaming at him. It was pretty entertaining. I have a lot of respect for UT's program, they are good in a lot of sports, but they sure have some stupid fans. Then again, who doesn't? OU has plenty of em too, but I love it here anyway!
