It’s a huge weekend for Oklahoma college football fans.
My alma mater, Oklahoma State University, is celebrating homecoming with events including the 2 p.m. Sea of Orange Parade in downtown. This year’s OSU Alumni Hall of Fame inductees – Garth Brooks, Barry Sanders and Robin Ventura – will be the grand marshals of the parade.
They also will be recognized during halftime of the OSU-Missouri football game. Kickoff is set for 8:15 p.m. at Boone Pickens Stadium. The game will air on ESPN2.
This weekend also marks one of the biggest and most contentious rivalries in college football history: OU-Texas.
The University of Oklahoma Sooners will play the University of Texas Longhorns at 11 a.m. in the Cotton Bowl in Dallas. The game will be carried on ABC.
The reigning national champions the Florida Gators will try to stay undefeated when they take on the Arkansas Razorbacks at 2:30 p.m. in Gainesville, Fla. The game will air on CBS.
The University of Florida, where my husband started his college education, also is celebrating homecoming.
