(L) OU 35 – TX 45
2008 was another bittersweet year for the Sooners. After dominating a strong Texas squad in the first half, MLB Ryan Reynolds went down to another knee injury early in the third quarter. The momentum steadily swung Texas’ way and they went on to a hard fought victory. The team did manage to rally and win the Big XII and go to yet another MNC game where we lost to Florida 24-14. I fear college football is slowly killing me.
As for the tournament itself, it was yet another great time and the weather was fantastic too. No Big Ugly Chicks, no more charity and no more “Ted and Larry” hangers on. Just good friends, good beer and really bad golf.
Outside of the game, the most unfortunate occurrence of the weekend was no repeat performances on the Big Ugly Bus. The antics of the previous year scared off a quickly aging (re: prude) crowd who is now starting to bring their kids to the OU / Texas game. As the great Hank Williams Jr. so aptly sings, “All My Rowdy Friends Have Settled Down, And They Seem To Be Into Laid Back Songs…”
